I have searched everywhere and tried mixing and matching different bits of code but I haven’t found anything that works or anyone with the same question.
Basically I want to be able to create video demos of iPhone apps that include standard UIKit elements and also the image coming from the camera (video preview layer). I don’t want to use airPlay or iOS simulator to project onto the desktop then capture because I want to be able to make videos outside in public. I have successfully been able to video capture the screen with this code but with the video preview layer being blank. I read that its because its using openGL and what I’m capturing is from the CPU, not the GPU. I have successfully used GPUImage from Brad Larson to capture the video preview layer but it doesn’t capture the rest of the UIView. I have seen code that combines both and converts to an image but I’m not sure if that would be too slow for realtime video capture. Can someone point me in the right direction?
It might not be the cleanest solution, but it will work nonetheless: did you consider jailbreaking? I hope Apple does sue me for this one but if you really want to record your screen then simply install a screen recorder. Enough options can be found: http://www.google.be/search?q=iphone+jailbreak+record+screen
And if you don’t like it: recover your phone for a previous backup.
(for the record: I’m against jailbreaking and posting this from a productivity point of view)
