Did iPhone have API for video recording?

Did iPhone have API to write an application for video recording?. I have read all the document about audio&video that release along with SDK beta5 but can't find anything about video recording, all they said is...
Audio
Support for recording, processing, and playing audio files and streams.
Video
Support for full-screen display of video files.
if currently iPhone don't have API for video recording, Did apple will develop it in future release of SDK?
thank you.

Here is a link the the apple developer site that might help out.

  • I updated to iOS 5.0. Now each time I sync the "other" category of memory grows. It is now up to 7.5 GB and I don't have room for videos.

    I updated to iOS 5.0. Now each time I sync the "other" category of memory grows. It is now up to 7.5 GB and I don't have room for videos. I deleted a .3 GB video and the tried to put it back on. Now it says the memory is full. It seems to not release memory once something is deleted.

    You need to restore your iPad now since "other" continues to grow with each sync. Something got corrupted when you were syncing and that is what probably caused this. This will explain how to restore.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    You can restore from a backup at the very end of the process - but if you restore from the backup and then the problem does not go away, you will have to restore to factory settings and then add all of your content back onto the device.
    BTW ... Other contains all of your app data, bookmarks, contacts, emails, text messages, some game save data and things of that nature.

    You said "The messages i received when i did not have signal are not showing up."
    How do you know received them?
    If the sender got a message that the Messagers were not delivered than they were never delivered and the only way for you to get them is for the sender to resent them

  • Hardware FAQ's - 2. Is there any size limitation for video recording?

    2. Is there any size limitation for video recording?[/b]
    Yes. The maximum file size of continuous recording is 4GB (i.e. the device will stop recording after hour for HD+, 2 hours for HD, and 4 hours for VGA). This limitation is due to the file system of the built-in memory (i.e. FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4GB).Will and can this be fix with a firmware upgrade? I would like it to last atleast 2hrs for HD+? Which is it's limit with memory and or battery?

    I've been told that the method size problem occurs
    especially with JSPs. Again, splitting is the
    solution.Is that if the code is actually "in" the jsp? What I mean is, do you still get the problem if you use <jsp:useBean ... ? (so the code is seperated from the view, like it should be)

  • Do you know if there are plans for video recording?

    topic

    I think most users who record video and/or take pictures with their phones don't expect greatness in quality. My GF records video on her KRZR phone all the time, then we Bluetooth it to our Macs, or since she can, she'll MMS it to her friends. It's just fun. It's about the opportunity and option to be able to capture moments when they happen, even if not the best of quality, at least you got that moment. Same way I take pictures with my iPhone. If I want quality, I use my digital camera for video and pictures, but it's not always handy to have my digital camera ready to go at any moment. Your mobile phone on the other hand is usually always with you. So why not have the options???
    I'm hoping with SDK programmers will make the iPhone video capable, as well as MMS capable. It shouldn't be a tough software write and I'm sure someone will figure out a way to get it done. Hoping SDK won't be too limiting in stopping peoples' software creativity!

  • Best API for video camera app

    Hi. Which Directive/Class will be the better choice if your app is mainly a video camera app. I saw about 3 different Classes to capture videos. I'm currently using Microsoft.Devices/CaptureDevice to capture video. It looks limited to me because found
    out I can't pause==>resume a recording. And what about Zooming? Can you tell me which way I want to go if I want to make sure my camera functionality is powerful? Which directive/class and if possible some code example on how to use it and maybe how to
    zoom, focus ect. Thank you very much

  • API for video profile selection in Adobe Flash Player

    Thanks to ActionScript 3, we are able to do programming with regard to Flash Player behavior,  extract info, etc.
    Since now Adobe Flash Player supports adaptive bit rate video, I wonder if there is an API for Adobe Flash Player so that we can set a fixed bit rate for a video stream on runtime?
    Thank you for your help!

    Try to install it manually.
    To begin with download these two files:
    * [http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flashplayer/current/uninstall_flash_player.exe uninstall_flash_player.exe]
    * [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe install_flash_player.exe]
    These are direct download links so you won't see a page, merely the files which you see in the screenshot.
    Close Firefox and then run the uninstaller even if you think you don't have it installed.
    Next, reboot to remove the Registry entries.
    When the system reboots to the desktop, run the installer. ''Do not open Firefox first though''.
    Finally, go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ to test the installation.

  • IOS4 Camera: where did the icon go for video?

    Greetings.
    I have a 3GS and upgraded to iOS4 two days ago. When I go to the basic camera app, there used to be a bar that you could slide from photo to video mode. That bar is gone, and I can't figure out how to use my camera for video. It appears to only take photos.
    Is there a new app that I am supposed to use for video was installed as a result of the upgrade to iOS4 that I don't know about?
    Thanks,

    Hi there,
    No there isn't any new app to record videos. It's still the same old Camera app that you use. Some iOS installs have gone terribly wrong. Some users are reporting Missing MMS icons and of such. Others have reported that shutting down the device and rebooting got them back. The best answer I can give you is to Restore and load up the backup you made. If that doesn't work Restore again but don't restore from the backup.

  • HELP! My iTunes & iPod don't have option for VIDEO???

    I have a 30gb iPod and the latest version of iTunes 6.03 (something like that). I downloaded a tv show from iTunes so I can try to put it in the ipod... When I plug it in, the Music and Pictures update by itself BUT the VIDEO doesn't update to the ipod at all eventho the box is checked..
    1.)So I go to Edit> Prefferences> Ipod tab. It doesn't give me an option for VIDEO. It only says Music, Podcasts, Photos, Contacts, and Calendars. So I'm stuck right there.
    2.) I tried to Click and Drag to my ipod but it doesn't let me do that either. I can drag it anywhere except to my ipod =(
    3.) I tried to Right Click on the tv show> Get Info> Option>
    (I read that you have to change the Video Kind to anything other than [Tv Shows]. I tried to do that but it doesn't give me that option. I can't select to change it. It's stuck on [Tv Shows])
    4.) I even tried to Restore my ipod 2 times. It's a waste of time.
    I think my main problem is that I don't have the Video option on my iPod or iTunes eventho I restored and updated 2 times. Maybe if I can figure out how to get the Video option on there then I can figure out how to put the videos on my ipod!
    CAN Someone PLEASE HELP ME????

    There isn't a "video" option for iTunes, so you can scratch that from your list of concerns.
    Huh? What's this a picture of?
    Syncing videos to your iPod
    and my stuff all plays and transfers just fine.
    And you get it onto the iPod how?

  • IMac built in camera for video recording.

    The I mac I purchased last year has a built in cam.I would like to know if I can do a short video recording using this cam.I know this is mostly used as a webcam,however I would like to know if I can do a recording on it.If so how to go about? Will the recording be like a webcam recording (not in full flow but cartoon like) or will it be  like recording on a handycam, atleast to an extent? I dont want the discontinuity woth short pauses inbetween, that we see on webcams.

    You can see if you like it by using PhotoBooth's video function, the film looking icon to the left of the record button.

  • Temporarily emptying iPhone storage for video recording

    Hi,
    Firstly, apologies if this has been asked on here before – if so, I couldn't find it, and might have been using the wrong search terms.
    I'm getting married soon, and rather than hire a videographer to produce something we probably won't like anyway, we thought we'd go down the riskier route of asking friends and family to use their iPhones to record video on the day, and then editing all the results together ourselves.
    The major stumbling block we're facing now is that most people's iPhones don't have enough free storage available to be used as video cameras for a day-long event. So I was wondering if there was any safe way to back up each iPhone (we're talking about half a dozen or so), temporarily reset it to clean out the storage, and then restore it later on after extracting the video. The questions I need answered are:
    1) Can one Mac, running one instance of iTunes, be used to back up multiple iPhones, some of which are not even synced with that specific Mac?
    2) Can I get large amounts of video off those iPhones without syncing and potentially over-writing previous back-ups? Is there a method of extracting video that doesn't involve iTunes (just as you can use Preview in OS X to get photos off the camera roll without opening iTunes, for example)?
    3) Once the video has been taken off the phones, is it safe to assume that iTunes will happily restore each phone from its respective back-up?
    Thanks very much for your help.

    Sorry, there is no easy/foolproof way to do what you want. The biggest hurdle is the simple fact that by design, an iPhone will sync or manually manage iTunes content with one computer at a time. So, even if you successfully backed up each iPhone's content on a single computer, & restored such to each phone when finished recording(all possible), the content would then be erased again when these phones were connected to the computers they normally sync with. Are you sure each of these individuals can deal with this? Getting the videos off each phone won't be a problem...the problem is dealing with the other data & the deletion/restore process.
    Edit:
    You could have each of these individuals sync their phones on the computers they normally sync with...this will create a current iPhone backup. Then on each phone: Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings. Record the video, you import to your computer, when they get home they restore from the backups they made. That would work.

  • Iphone 5S low light video recording is very dark :(

    Hello Friends,
    I bought a new iphone 5S and its few days only since i have been using this phone
    and i never tested video camera before.
    recently i came to know while taking some video in a low light situation, i noticed that the video is **** dark and
    it looks pathetic though in image mode the camera appeares to be good and its clearly brighter.
    but when i switch to video mode it becomes very darker.
    I did some comparison just to confirm my suspicion and in fact it turns out that videos are worse quality than videos that i shot with my iphone 4S, i tried all possible settings but nothing worked,
    i did restore my phone twice by assuming it is a software issue however i still believe it might be a software issue because when i am using 3rd party app to take video everything is perfect. even if i am using the same camera feature through imessage/whatsapp by directly accessing camera it works fine.
    i don't know what exactly the problem is
    please friends help me....if anyone has faced the similar problem.
    Thank you

    Hello there, ankitnavgwal.
    Good job on troubleshooting your issue so far. The following Knowledge Base article offers a great checkllist of practical steps for troubleshooting issues with iOS not functioning as expected:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If there is no video or if the screen remains black, verify that the device has enough charge to turn on:
    If you are using an iPad, ensure that it's connected to the USB Power Adapter supplied with the device.
    Let it charge for at least twenty minutes, then see if it starts normally.
    If there is no image on the screen, press the Sleep/Wake button to attempt to wake the device.
    If the screen displays a red battery icon, continue charging the device until the battery is fully charged. Learn more about charging iPhone and iPod touch, or iPad.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • Microphone doesn't seem to work on iPhone4 for Built-in Photo App for Video recording

    I have an iPhone4 and I used the built-in Photo app to record a video. When I played it back on the iPhone or on my Computer I heard no sound! I used the built in Voice Recoder and I could record and play back voice memos! Any idea of the fix?

    i had the same problem.
    try this. when you press go live and the chat thing comes up, right click on where your video is supposed to show up and then press settings then click on the tab with the picture of a webcam. then press the drop down box and select usb video.
    it should work.
