I am trying to enable the H265 codec in the Linphone App for iOS but I don't know how to.
I have successfully built both the app and its sdk.
When one goes to Settings -> Video, under CODECS in the app, there are only the VP8 and H264 codecs available.
I thought that compiling the SDK with all video support and all 3rd party components should be enough.
This is how I have compiled the SDK:
Prepare:
cmake .. -G Ninja -DLINPHONESDK_PLATFORM=IOS -DENABLE_VIDEO=YES -DENABLE_ZRTP=YES -DENABLE_GPL_THIRD_PARTIES=YES
Build:
cmake --build .
Everything built successfully and I have referenced the built SDK in my Linphone project.
The SDK version is 4.2:
"Installing linphone-sdk 4.4.0-alpha.167+f8422b1 (was 4.2)"
The app version is 4.1.0 and in its read me file one can see:
"Video H.265 codec support, based on iOS VideoToolbox framework."
After rebuilding everything and running it, I am still unable to see H265 show up under CODECS.
Does anybody know what else I have to do to enable H265 ?
Also, I have downloaded the Linphone app from the App Store and noticed that it too does not include the H265 video codec.
My device is an iPhone 6S running iOS 12.4.
