Question

I am able to launch camera roll from my app. I want to get the URL of the video when it is selected by a user, because I want to use it for asset reading/writing.

Is it possible to get the URL of the selected video from camera roll ? If yes, how ?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Set the UIImagePickerControllerDelegate to your class and use this code to retrieve the url.

-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info{
     [self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
     NSURL *assetURL = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerReferenceURL];
}
