I have composed multiple videos and I want to remove last 0.5 second of all the tracks in the composition. I believe removeTimeRange
can be used in situation.
Doc for this methods reads as
Removes a specified timeRange from all tracks of the composition
But not able to figure out the range that should be given to achieve this. My composition code is following:
AVAsset *asset0 = [self currentAsset:0];
AVAsset *asset1 = [self currentAsset:1];
AVAsset *asset2 = [self currentAsset:2];
AVAsset *asset3 = [self currentAsset:3];
AVAsset *asset4 = [self currentAsset:4];
NSArray *assets = @[asset0, asset1, asset2, asset3, asset4];
AVMutableComposition *mutableComposition = [AVMutableComposition composition];
AVMutableCompositionTrack *videoCompositionTrack = [mutableComposition addMutableTrackWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo
preferredTrackID:kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid];
AVMutableCompositionTrack *audioCompositionTrack = [mutableComposition addMutableTrackWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio
preferredTrackID:kCMPersistentTrackID_Invalid];
NSMutableArray *instructions = [NSMutableArray new];
CGSize size = CGSizeZero;
CMTime time = kCMTimeZero;
for (AVAsset *asset in assets)
{
AVAssetTrack *assetTrack = [asset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo].firstObject;
AVAssetTrack *audioAssetTrack = [asset tracksWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeAudio].firstObject;
NSError *error;
[videoCompositionTrack insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, assetTrack.timeRange.duration)
ofTrack:assetTrack
atTime:time
error:&error];
if (error) {
NSLog(@"Error - %@", error.debugDescription);
}
[audioCompositionTrack insertTimeRange:CMTimeRangeMake(kCMTimeZero, assetTrack.timeRange.duration)
ofTrack:audioAssetTrack
atTime:time
error:&error];
if (error) {
NSLog(@"Error - %@", error.debugDescription);
}
AVMutableVideoCompositionInstruction *videoCompositionInstruction = [AVMutableVideoCompositionInstruction videoCompositionInstruction];
videoCompositionInstruction.timeRange = CMTimeRangeMake(time, assetTrack.timeRange.duration);
videoCompositionInstruction.layerInstructions = @[[AVMutableVideoCompositionLayerInstruction videoCompositionLayerInstructionWithAssetTrack:videoCompositionTrack]];
[instructions addObject:videoCompositionInstruction];
time = CMTimeAdd(time, assetTrack.timeRange.duration);
if (CGSizeEqualToSize(size, CGSizeZero)) {
size = assetTrack.naturalSize;;
}
}
AVMutableVideoComposition *mutableVideoComposition = [AVMutableVideoComposition videoComposition];
mutableVideoComposition.instructions = instructions;
mutableVideoComposition.frameDuration = CMTimeMake(1, 30);
mutableVideoComposition.renderSize = size;
pi = [AVPlayerItem playerItemWithAsset:mutableComposition];
pi.videoComposition = mutableVideoComposition;
player = [AVPlayer playerWithPlayerItem:[[CameraEngine engine] pi]];
player.volume = 0.75;
playerLayer = [AVPlayerLayer playerLayerWithPlayer: player];
playerLayer.frame = self.bounds;
[self.layer addSublayer: playerLayer];
[playerLayer setNeedsDisplay];
[player play];
I want to remove 0.5 sec of video from all 5 tracks after composition because I get blank frames in between when track changes.
All the tracks are fine(no black frame at the end).
I have tried removing frames directly from AVMutableCompositionTrack
but againg blank frames comes after composition.
So I want to know how to produce this time range?
