AVFoundation has serious issued in iOS 16.1 beta 5. None of these issues are seen prior to iOS 16.0 or earlier. The following code fails regularly when switching between AVCaptureMultiCamSession & AVCaptureSession. It turns out that assetWriter.canApply(outputSettings:) condition is false for no apparent reason.         if assetWriter?.canApply(outputSettings: audioSettings!, forMediaType: AVMediaType.audio) ?? false { }           I dumped audioSettings dictionary and here it is: Looks like number of channels in AVAudioSession are 3 and that is the issue. But how did that happen? Probably there is a bug and AVCaptureMultiCamSession teardown and deallocation is causing some issue. Using AVAssetWriter in AVCaptureMultiCamSession, many times no audio is recorded in the video under same audio settings dictionary dumped above. There is audio track in the video but everything is silent it seems. The same code works perfectly in all other iOS versions. I checked that audio sample buffers are indeed vended during recording but it's very likely they are silent buffers. Is anyone aware of these issues?

We are getting this error on iOS 16.1 beta 5 that we never saw before in any of the iOS versions. [as_client]     AVAudioSession_iOS.mm:2374  Failed to set category, error: 'what' I wonder if there is any known workaround for the same. iOS 16 has been a nightmare and lot of AVFoundation code breaks or becomes unpredictable in behaviour. This is a new issue added in iOS 16.1.

It's very hard to know from AVFoundation error codes what is the exact error. For instance, I see the following message and don't know what error code means?

With a 4 channel audio input, I get error while recording a movie using AVAssetWriter and using LPCM codec. Are 4 audio channels not supported by AVAssetWriterInput? Here are my compression settings: var aclSize:size_t = 0      var currentChannelLayout:UnsafePointer<AudioChannelLayout>? = nil /* * outputAudioFormat = CMSampleBufferGetFormatDescription(sampleBuffer) * for the latest sample buffer received in captureOutput sampleBufferDelegate */       if let outputFormat = outputAudioFormat {               currentChannelLayout = CMAudioFormatDescriptionGetChannelLayout(outputFormat, sizeOut: &aclSize)        }       var currentChannelLayoutData:Data = Data()       if let currentChannelLayout = currentChannelLayout, aclSize > 0 {              currentChannelLayoutData = Data.init(bytes: currentChannelLayout, count: aclSize)        }       let numChannels = AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().inputNumberOfChannels       audioSettings[AVSampleRateKey] =  48000.0     audioSettings[AVFormatIDKey] = kAudioFormatLinearPCM       audioSettings[AVLinearPCMIsBigEndianKey] = false       audioSettings[AVLinearPCMBitDepthKey] = 16       audioSettings[AVNumberOfChannelsKey] = numChannels       audioSettings[AVLinearPCMIsFloatKey] = false       audioSettings[AVLinearPCMIsNonInterleaved] = false       audioSettings[AVChannelLayoutKey] = currentChannelLayoutData

I am unable to understand the sentence "Default is YES for all apps linked on or after iOS 15.4"found in Apple's documentation. What does it actually mean? Does it mean that the default value is YES for app running on iOS 15.4 or later? Or does it mean it is yes if the app is built with iOS 15.4 SDK or later? Or is it something else?

This is another strange issue on iOS 16, and one among the many woes that cause autoRotation problems on the platform. At the app startup time, there is a mismatch between -[UIViewController interfaceOrientation] (now deprecated), -[UIViewController supportedInterfaceOrientations] (which returns .landscapeRight), and -[windowScene interfaceOrientation].  public var windowOrientation: UIInterfaceOrientation {         return view.window?.windowScene?.interfaceOrientation ?? .unknown     }  override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {         super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()      layoutInterfaceForOrientation(windowOrientation)     }  override var supportedInterfaceOrientations: UIInterfaceOrientationMask {         return .landscapeRight Putting a breakpoint in viewDidLayoutSubviews reveals that windowOrientation is portrait while interfaceOrientation is .landscapeRight. Is there anyway this can be fixed or any workaround possible?

I get this error when I run my code on an iOS 14 device using XCode 14. dyld: Symbol not found: _$s7SwiftUI15GraphicsContextV4fill_4with5styleyAA4PathV_AC7ShadingVAA9FillStyleVtF Referenced from: ****** Expected in: /System/Library/Frameworks/SwiftUI.framework/SwiftUI I do not get any errors when I run the same code on an iOS 15 or iOS 16 device. How do I resolve this issue?

iOS 16 has serious bugs in UIKit without any known workarounds, so much that I had to remove my app from sale. Obviously I am affected and am desperate to know if anyone has found any workaround or if UIKit Engineers can tell me any workarounds. To summarise, the issue is calling setNeedsUpdateOfSupportedInterfaceOrientations shortly (within 0.5 seconds) after app launch doesn't trigger autorotation. It does trigger autorotation when the device is launched from the debugger but not when the app is launched directly. Maybe the debugger incurs some delay that is perhaps sufficient to trigger autorotation? I have filed FB11516363 but need a workaround desperately so as to get my app back on AppStore.

I am seeing a strange issue with autorotation on iOS 16 that is not seen in other iOS versions. And worse, the issue is NOT seen if I connect device to XCode and debug. It is ONLY seen when I directly launch the app on device once it is installed, and that's the reason I am unable to identify any fix. So here is the summary of the issue. I disable autorotation in the app till the camera session starts running. Once camera session starts running, I fire a notification to force autorotation of device to current orientation. var disableAutoRotation: Bool { if !cameraSessionRunning { return true } return false } override var supportedInterfaceOrientations: UIInterfaceOrientationMask { var orientations:UIInterfaceOrientationMask = .landscapeRight if !self.disableAutoRotation { orientations = .all } return orientations } func cameraSessionStartedRunning(_ session:AVCaptureSession?) { DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now(), execute: { /* * HELP::: This code does something only when debug directly from XCode, * not when directly launching the app on device!!!! */ cameraSessionRunning = true if #available(iOS 16.0, *) { UIView.performWithoutAnimation { self.setNeedsUpdateOfSupportedInterfaceOrientations() } } else { // Fallback on earlier versions UIViewController.attemptRotationToDeviceOrientation() } self.layoutInterfaceForOrientation(self.windowOrientation) }) }

I see in Crashlytics few users are getting this exception when connecting the inputNode to mainMixerNode in AVAudioEngine: Fatal Exception: com.apple.coreaudio.avfaudio required condition is false: format.sampleRate == hwFormat.sampleRate Here is my code: self.engine = AVAudioEngine() let format = engine.inputNode.inputFormat(forBus: 0) //main mixer node is connected to output node by default engine.connect(self.engine.inputNode, to: self.engine.mainMixerNode, format: format) Just want to understand how can this error occur and what is the right fix?

I have the following code to connect inputNode to mainMixerNode of AVAudioEngine: public func setupAudioEngine() { self.engine = AVAudioEngine() let format = engine.inputNode.inputFormat(forBus: 0) //main mixer node is connected to output node by default engine.connect(self.engine.inputNode, to: self.engine.mainMixerNode, format: format) do { engine.prepare() try self.engine.start() } catch { print("error couldn't start engine") } engineRunning = true } But I am seeing a crash in Crashlytics dashboard (which I can't reproduce). Fatal Exception: com.apple.coreaudio.avfaudio required condition is false: IsFormatSampleRateAndChannelCountValid(format) Before calling the function setupAudioEngine I make sure the AVAudioSession category is not playback where mic is not available. The function is called where audio route change notification is handled and I check this condition specifically. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

@AVFoundation engineers, my users am seeing the following crash which I can not reproduce at my end. *** -[__NSArrayI objectAtIndexedSubscript:]: index 2 beyond bounds [0 .. 1] Fatal Exception: NSRangeException 0 CoreFoundation 0x99288 __exceptionPreprocess 1 libobjc.A.dylib 0x16744 objc_exception_throw 2 CoreFoundation 0x1a431c -[__NSCFString characterAtIndex:].cold.1 3 CoreFoundation 0x4c96c CFDateFormatterCreateStringWithAbsoluteTime 4 AVFCapture 0x6cad4 -[AVCaptureConnection getAvgAudioLevelForChannel:] All I am doing is this:  func updateMeters() {         var channelCount = 0         var decibels:[Float] = []         let audioConnection = self.audioConnection         if let audioConnection = audioConnection {             for audioChannel in audioConnection.audioChannels {                 decibels.append(audioChannel.averagePowerLevel)                 channelCount = channelCount + 1             }         }          What am I doing wrong?

Can someone help me in identifying the source of this crash that I see in crash logs?

I have this code to adjust UITextView when keyboard is about to be displayed. @objc func keyboardWillShow(notification: NSNotification) { if let rectValue = notification.userInfo?[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as? NSValue { let keyboardSize = rectValue.cgRectValue.size let contentInsets: UIEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: keyboardSize.height - view.safeAreaInsets.bottom, right: 0) textView.contentInset = contentInsets textView.scrollIndicatorInsets = contentInsets } } I see setting contentInset automatically creates a scrolling animation (after the keyboard appears fully) that makes the text at the cursor visible. The animation happens automatically and there is no way to disable it. I want to scroll to a given location in the textView sometimes when the keyboard is presented (preferably, animating it along with keyboard appearance). The implicit contentInset animation makes it impossible however. First the keyboard animates, then contentInset animates, and now only can I animate to my chosen location in textView. This is awkward. I am wondering what is the right way to achieve it?

This issue is driving me crazy. I load an NSAttributedString in UITextView and within moments after loading the foregroundColor attribute of text is erased(i.e becomes white) without me doing anything. Here is the code and NSLog dump. How do I debug this I wonder? class ScriptEditingView: UITextView, UITextViewDelegate { var defaultFont = UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle: .body) var defaultTextColor = UIColor.white private func commonInit() { self.font = UIFont.preferredFont(forTextStyle: .body) self.allowsEditingTextAttributes = true self.textColor = defaultTextColor self.backgroundColor = UIColor.black self.isOpaque = true self.isEditable = true self.isSelectable = true self.dataDetectorTypes = [] self.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = false } } And then in my ViewController that contains the UITextView, I have this code: textView = ScriptEditingView(frame: newTextViewRect, textContainer: nil) textView.delegate = self view.addSubview(textView) textView.allowsEditingTextAttributes = true let guide = view.safeAreaLayoutGuide // 5 textView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false NSLayoutConstraint.activate([ textView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: guide.leadingAnchor), textView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: guide.trailingAnchor), textView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor), textView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor) ]) textView.attributedText = attributedString NSLog("Attributed now") dumpAttributesOfText() DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 1.0) { NSLog("Attributes after 1 sec") self.dumpAttributesOfText() } And here is code to dump attributes of text: private func dumpAttributesOfText() { textView.attributedText?.enumerateAttributes(in: NSRange(location: 0, length: textView.attributedText!.length), options: .longestEffectiveRangeNotRequired, using: { dictionary, range, stop in NSLog(" range \(range)") if let font = dictionary[.font] as? UIFont { NSLog("Font at range \(range) - \(font.fontName), \(font.pointSize)") } if let foregroundColor = dictionary[.foregroundColor] as? UIColor { NSLog("Foregroundcolor \(foregroundColor) at range \(range)") } if let underline = dictionary[.underlineStyle] as? Int { NSLog("Underline \(underline) at range \(range)") } }) } The logs show this: 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841199+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Attributed now 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841370+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] range {0, 14} 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841486+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Font at range {0, 14} - HelveticaNeue, 30.0 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841586+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Foregroundcolor UIExtendedGrayColorSpace 1 1 at range {0, 14} 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841681+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] range {14, 6} 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841770+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Font at range {14, 6} - HelveticaNeue, 30.0 2022-07-02 13:16:02.841855+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Foregroundcolor kCGColorSpaceModelRGB 0.96863 0.80784 0.27451 1 at range {14, 6} 2022-07-02 13:16:03.934816+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Attributes after 1 sec 2022-07-02 13:16:03.935087+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] range {0, 20} 2022-07-02 13:16:03.935183+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Font at range {0, 20} - HelveticaNeue, 30.0 2022-07-02 13:16:03.935255+0400 MyApp[12054:922491] Foregroundcolor UIExtendedGrayColorSpace 1 1 at range {0, 20}
