Re: muxed media and QTKit



Hypothetically, it shouldn't be necessary to disable the audio connection when there are no capture outputs expecting audio, The capture session should know to just ignore the extra stream in that case.

hmm... I guess that won't do much then :)

In the mean time, feel free to file a bug on this issue. Details on the specific device being used (if you can get them), your configuration of the capture session, and your configuration of the decompressed video output, including any pixel buffer attributes that you might be setting, would be especially helpful.


I don't think it's a bug, as much as it is my incompetence with QT. The camera works fine with existing software, so it must be doing something that I'm not.
I'm not configuring the decompressed video, nor am I setting any pixelbuffer attributes -- I just need the CVImageBufferRef to pass along to some other image processing stuff.


My code looks something like this (error handling removed for brevity:

if(deviceUID)
dev = [QTCaptureDevice deviceWithUniqueID: deviceUID];
else
dev = [QTCaptureDevice defaultInputDeviceWithMediaType: QTMediaTypeVideo];
[dev open: &err];
deviceInput = [[QTCaptureDeviceInput alloc] initWithDevice: dev];

// get the list of owned connections
NSArray *ownedConnections = [deviceInput connections];

// disable all the audio connections
for (QTCaptureConnection *connection in ownedConnections) {
if ( [[connection mediaType] isEqualToString: QTMediaTypeSound] ) {
[connection setEnabled:NO];
}
}

videoOutput = [[QTCaptureDecompressedVideoOutput alloc] init];
[videoOutput setDelegate: self];

captureSession = [[QTCaptureSession alloc] init];
[captureSession addInput: deviceInput error: &err];
[captureSession addOutput: videoOutput error: &err];
[captureSession startRunning];


This seems to work perfectly for video-only devices (built-in and external iSights), but not for DV-cams (The device in question is an HV20)
