I'm trying to save h.264 frames that comes to the app from network into a .mov file. Using AVAssetWriter with AVAssetWriterInput appending CMSampleBuffer.
Output settings are nil which means that frames will not be encoded during saving:
I have the code that saves frames to a file. Tried to run it in iOS app and in macOS app using same frames data
iOS result video file plays correctly
macOS result video file plays with artefacts
I've inspected both result files with MediaInfo and all the data is equal except 1 line (bold line):
iOS result file has this line and macOS result file missing it:
Format settings, GOP : M=1, N=15
Is there a way to provide some settings to AVAssetWriter/AVAssetWriterInput to have correct Group of Pictures in result file on macOS?
The goal is to save raw H.264 stream to file without additional encoding.

Code Block videoWriter = AVAssetWriterInput(mediaType: .video, outputSettings: nil, sourceFormatHint: format) videoWriter.append(buffer)
