AVCaptureView not showing any preview video


  • Subject: AVCaptureView not showing any preview video
  • From: Jens Alfke <email@hidden>

I’m using an AVCaptureView on OS X 10.10 to read a QR code from the camera (i.e. the built-in one on my MacBook Pro.) Everything’s working — my delegate receives frames, and using a CIDetector it can read a QR code held up to the camera — except that the view doesn’t show the video from the camera. Instead it just shows an icon of a camera with a line through it and the message “No camera selected.” Which is clearly bogus because the camera _is_ selected, its LED is on, and video _is_ being captured by the session and sent to my delegate.

Below is my code that sets up the view. What am I missing?

(Feel free to tell me to take this to another list, but

    AVCaptureSession* session = [[AVCaptureSession alloc] init];
    AVCaptureDevice* video = [AVCaptureDevice defaultDeviceWithMediaType: AVMediaTypeVideo];
    AVCaptureDeviceInput* input = [AVCaptureDeviceInput deviceInputWithDevice: video error: NULL];
    [session addInput: input];

    AVCaptureVideoDataOutput* output = [[AVCaptureVideoDataOutput alloc] init];
    [output setSampleBufferDelegate: self queue: dispatch_get_main_queue()];
    output.alwaysDiscardsLateVideoFrames = YES;
    [session addOutput: output];

    [session startRunning];

    [captureView setSession: session showVideoPreview: YES showAudioPreview: NO];
