I am making a sample application that utilizes AVFoundation to record video. The whole point is so I can have more control over how the video is recorded. In my sample project I have the video capturing but am struggling with handling orientation correctly.
I have done a lot of searching around the web and found that others are suggesting that I should NOT allow my capture view or capture session to rotate based on orientation, but rather set a transformation to rotate the video during playback. I have this working fine on iOS and Mac devices, but am wondering if I will have issues on other platforms such as Windows or Android.
Also, when I view the recorded video's metadata I see that the width and height are not set properly for the orientation. This makes sense as I am only transforming the presentation of the video and not it's actual resolution.
My question here is how do I correctly support portrait and landscape orientations and have it reflected correctly in the video file output? I need these videos to play on all platforms correctly so I am thinking the resolution is going to matter a great deal.
Below is the full source I have written thus far. I appreciate any advice you all can provide.

Video orientation is handled by the AVAssetWriterInput.transform
, looks like the getVideoTransform()
implementation is not correct - CGAffineTransform
expects the rotation angle to be in radians, so need to change to something like this:
private func getVideoTransform() -> CGAffineTransform {
switch UIDevice.current.orientation {
case .portrait:
return .identity
case .portraitUpsideDown:
return CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: .pi)
case .landscapeLeft:
return CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: .pi/2)
case .landscapeRight:
return CGAffineTransform(rotationAngle: -.pi/2)
default:
return .identity
}
}

If you are using an
AVAssetWriter
object to write a movie file, you can use thetransform
property of the associatedAVAssetWriterInput
to specify the output file orientation. This will write a display transform property into the output file as the preferred transformation of the visual media data for display purposes. See theAVAssetWriterInput.h
interface file for the details.
I have found a solution to my problem. The solution is to export the video using AVAssetExportSession to handle setting the video size and then handling the rotation at the time of export and not during recording. I still have an issue were I need to fix the scale factor to go from my original video size to a smaller 640x480 resolution, but at least I solved my rotation issues. Please see updated code below.
