On iOS, working with a video feed, I am getting a yellow warning that:
"'AVCaptureVideoOrientation' was deprecated in iOS 17.0: Use AVCaptureDeviceRotationCoordinator instead".
But I haven't been able to figure out how to get AVCaptureDevice.RotationCoordinator to work, and I haven't found any example of its usage in the Developer Forums or on the wider internet (the one mention of it in a WWDC session doesn't provide illustration of its use). Can anyone offer a working example using Swift?
Hey @grb2007!
I solved similar issue with the following solution. It seems to be working correctly. Looking forward to get some feedback on correctness. Hope that helps!
private func getAngle(_ orientation: UIDeviceOrientation) -> CGFloat? {
switch orientation {
case .landscapeRight: return 45
case .portrait: return 90
case .portraitUpsideDown: return 180
default: return 0.0
}
}
Usage
if let output = photoOutput.connection(with: .video), let angle = self.getAngle(self.orientation), output.isVideoRotationAngleSupported(angle) {
output.videoRotationAngle = angle
}
I think that is a potentially useful approach for addressing orientation in some situations - so thank you - but it's not what is needed for replacing use of AVCaptureVideoOrientation. The warning associated with AVCaptureVideoOrientation specifically suggests using AVCaptureDevice.RotationCoordinator - we still just need an example of how to make that work.
