CVPixelBuffer Malloc 00:40.969.716 1 0x1f2570 96 CoreVideo CVObject::alloc(unsigned long, __CFAllocator const*, unsigned long, unsigned long)

Look here:
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = NULL;
CVPixelBufferPoolCreatePixelBuffer(NULL, adaptor.pixelBufferPool, &buffer);
CVPixelBufferLockBaseAddress(buffer, 0);
buffer = (CVPixelBufferRef)[self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[tmpImg CGImage] size:size];
first a pixel buffer gets created and its address put info buffer variable, then the same variable gets overwritten by pixelBufferFromCGImage, so its previous content cannot be released any more.
EDIT
you've just removed the code I used, so my answer is now no more applicable.
Now this part:
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = NULL;
buffer = (CVPixelBufferRef)[self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[tmpImg CGImage] size:size];
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:CMTimeMake(totalTime-nextTime+(nextTime/2.0), 1)];
NSLog(#"%f",totalTime-nextTime+(nextTime/2.0));
...
You have a commented out CVPixelBufferPoolRelease(adaptor.pixelBufferPool), which is okay, since in this version you have not pixel buffer pool, but I miss here a call to CVPixelBufferRelease(buffer).

iPhone - AVAssetWriter - Error creating movie from photos at 1920×1080 pixels

I am trying to create a movie from some pictures. It works just fine with hd pictures ({720, 1280}) or lower resolutions . But when i try to create the movie with full hd pictures {1080, 1920} , the video is scrambled. Here is a link to see how it looks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfYldb8e_18 .

I had the same problem and this answer resolved it: the size of the video must be a multiple of 16.
Pretty sure that this is either a HW limitation or a bug. Please file a Radar.
how about something like this to get pixel buffer
//you could use a cgiimageref here instead
CFDataRef imageData= CGDataProviderCopyData(CGImageGetDataProvider(imageView.image.CGImage));
NSLog (#"copied image data");
cvErr = CVPixelBufferCreateWithBytes(kCFAllocatorDefault,
FRAME_WIDTH,
FRAME_HEIGHT,
kCVPixelFormatType_32BGRA,
(void*)CFDataGetBytePtr(imageData),
CGImageGetBytesPerRow(imageView.image.CGImage),
NULL,
NULL,
NULL,
&pixelBuffer);
NSLog (#"CVPixelBufferCreateWithBytes returned %d", cvErr);
CFAbsoluteTime thisFrameWallClockTime = CFAbsoluteTimeGetCurrent();
CFTimeInterval elapsedTime = thisFrameWallClockTime - firstFrameWallClockTime;
NSLog (#"elapsedTime: %f", elapsedTime);
CMTime presentationTime = CMTimeMake(elapsedTime * TIME_SCALE, TIME_SCALE);
// write the sample
BOOL appended = [assetWriterPixelBufferAdaptor appendPixelBuffer:pixelBuffer withPresentationTime:presentationTime];
CVPixelBufferRelease(pixelBuffer);
CFRelease(imageData);
if (appended) {
NSLog (#"appended sample at time %lf", CMTimeGetSeconds(presentationTime));
} else {
NSLog (#"failed to append");
[self stopRecording];
self.startStopButton.selected = NO;
}

But the problem that i am having is that the output of the video is some how corrupted (it does play although it has funny lines shown below:
I would be so grateful for any help
Many Thanks

I have been seeing problems with the H264 video encoding hardware where it can corrupt input that does not match an known aspect ratio. For example, my testing shows that if one video dimension is smaller than 128 pixel, the video will not encode.
What I have seen working is 128x128, 192x128, 240x160, 480x320, and others.
See this page on aspect ratios
P.S.
You will likely want to use the AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor since it contains a pixel buffer pool that you can use via CVPixelBufferPoolCreatePixelBuffer(). Also, you will want to assert(adaptor.pixelBufferPool); after calling startSessionAtSourceTime to ensure that your adaptor can write to the writer.

iOS5 AVFoundation image to video

I'm trying to create a video from a single image, and save it to my photos library, I've been googling around for ages - and cannot find a solution.
I have this code:
#autoreleasepool {
NSString *path = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Documents/movie2.mp4"]];
UIImage *img = [UIImage imageWithData:[[self imageDataArrya]objectAtIndex:0]imageData];
[self writeImageAsMovie:img toPath:path size:CGSizeMake(640, 960) duration:10];
UISaveVideoAtPathToSavedPhotosAlbum (path,self, #selector(video:didFinishSavingWithError: contextInfo:), nil);
}
I call the above mentioned method in a background thread. This is the code for 'writeImageAsMovie':
- (void)writeImageAsMovie:(UIImage*)image toPath:(NSString*)path size:(CGSize)size duration:(int)duration {
NSError *error = nil;
AVAssetWriter *videoWriter = [[AVAssetWriter alloc] initWithURL:
[NSURL fileURLWithPath:path] fileType:AVFileTypeQuickTimeMovie
error:&error];
NSDictionary *videoSettings = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
AVVideoCodecH264, AVVideoCodecKey,
[NSNumber numberWithInt:size.width], AVVideoWidthKey,
[NSNumber numberWithInt:size.height], AVVideoHeightKey,
nil];
[self setInput:[AVAssetWriterInput assetWriterInputWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo
outputSettings:videoSettings]];
AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor *adaptor = [AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor
assetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptorWithAssetWriterInput:input
sourcePixelBufferAttributes:nil];
[videoWriter addInput:input];
[videoWriter startWriting];
[videoWriter startSessionAtSourceTime:kCMTimeZero];
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:image.CGImage];
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:kCMTimeZero];
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:CMTimeMake(duration-1, 2)];
[input markAsFinished];
[videoWriter endSessionAtSourceTime:CMTimeMake(duration, 2)];
[videoWriter finishWriting];
}
The utility method for converting an Image to a CVPixelBufferRef:
- (CVPixelBufferRef) pixelBufferFromCGImage: (CGImageRef) image {
NSDictionary *options = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], kCVPixelBufferCGImageCompatibilityKey,
[NSNumber numberWithBool:YES], kCVPixelBufferCGBitmapContextCompatibilityKey,
nil];
CVPixelBufferRef pxbuffer = NULL;
CVReturn status = CVPixelBufferCreate(kCFAllocatorDefault,
self.view.frame.size.width,
self.view.frame.size.height,
kCVPixelFormatType_32ARGB,
(__bridge CFDictionaryRef) options,
&pxbuffer);
CVPixelBufferLockBaseAddress(pxbuffer, 0);
void *pxdata = CVPixelBufferGetBaseAddress(pxbuffer);
CGColorSpaceRef rgbColorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB();
CGContextRef context = CGBitmapContextCreate(pxdata, self.view.frame.size.width,
self.view.frame.size.height, 8, 4*self.view.frame.size.width, rgbColorSpace,
kCGImageAlphaNoneSkipFirst);
CGContextConcatCTM(context, CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(0));
CGContextDrawImage(context, CGRectMake(0, 0, CGImageGetWidth(image),
CGImageGetHeight(image)), image);
CGColorSpaceRelease(rgbColorSpace);
CGContextRelease(context);
CVPixelBufferUnlockBaseAddress(pxbuffer, 0);
return pxbuffer;
}
Now if I try to run the code from the Simulator, it gives me an error saying that the data is corrupt.
If I run it on my device, it saves a 2 second video to my photo library but its only green, my image isn't in there.
Any help will be appreciated :)
I totally got this working - sorry I didn't see your reply before today.
This is what I used:
Create a Temp File
NSString *path = [NSHomeDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"Documents/flipimator-tempfile.mp4"]];
//overwrites it if it already exists.
if([fileManager fileExistsAtPath:path])
[fileManager removeItemAtPath:path error:NULL];
Call the export images method to save images to the temp file:
[self exportImages:frames
asVideoToPath:path
withFrameSize:imageSize
framesPerSecond:fps];
Save the temp file to the photo album:
UISaveVideoAtPathToSavedPhotosAlbum (path,self, #selector(video:didFinishSavingWithError: contextInfo:), nil);
- (void)video:(NSString *) videoPath didFinishSavingWithError: (NSError *) error contextInfo: (void *) contextInfo {
NSLog(#"Finished saving video with error: %#", error);
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:#"Done"
message:#"Movie succesfully exported."
delegate:nil
cancelButtonTitle:#"OK"
otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];
[alert show];
}
Code for the exportImages method:
- (void)exportImages:(NSArray *)imageArray
asVideoToPath:(NSString *)path
withFrameSize:(CGSize)imageSize
framesPerSecond:(NSUInteger)fps {
NSLog(#"Start building video from defined frames.");

Paramenters to the method
imageArray : NSArray of UIImage.
path : Temporary path to write to while you process (temp defined above).
imageSize : The size of the video in pixels (width, and height).
fps : How many images should be displayed per second in the video.
Hope it helps!
Sorry about the formatting - I'm still very new to StackOverflow.com.

How to use CVPixelBufferPool in conjunction with AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor in iPhone?

I have successfully created video from images using the following code
-(void)writeImageAsMovie:(NSArray *)array toPath:(NSString*)path size:(CGSize)size duration:(int)duration
{
NSError *error = nil;
AVAssetWriter *videoWriter = [[AVAssetWriter alloc] initWithURL:
[NSURL fileURLWithPath:path] fileType:AVFileTypeQuickTimeMovie
error:&error];
NSParameterAssert(videoWriter);
NSDictionary *videoSettings = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
AVVideoCodecH264, AVVideoCodecKey,
[NSNumber numberWithInt:size.width], AVVideoWidthKey,
[NSNumber numberWithInt:size.height], AVVideoHeightKey,
nil];
AVAssetWriterInput* writerInput = [[AVAssetWriterInput
assetWriterInputWithMediaType:AVMediaTypeVideo
outputSettings:videoSettings] retain];
AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor *adaptor = [AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor
assetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptorWithAssetWriterInput:writerInput
sourcePixelBufferAttributes:nil];
NSParameterAssert(writerInput);
NSParameterAssert([videoWriter canAddInput:writerInput]);
[videoWriter addInput:writerInput];
//Start a session:
[videoWriter startWriting];
[videoWriter startSessionAtSourceTime:kCMTimeZero];
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = NULL;
buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[array objectAtIndex:0] CGImage]];
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:kCMTimeZero];
//Write samples:
for (int i = 0;i<[array count]; i++)
{
if([writerInput isReadyForMoreMediaData])
{
NSLog(#"inside for loop %d",i);
CMTime frameTime = CMTimeMake(1, 20);
CMTime lastTime=CMTimeMake(i, 20); //i is from 0 to 24 of the loop above
CMTime presentTime=CMTimeAdd(lastTime, frameTime);
buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[array objectAtIndex:i] CGImage]];
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:presentTime];
}
else
{
NSLog(#"error");
i--;
}
}
NSLog(#"outside for loop");
//Finish the session:
[writerInput markAsFinished];
[videoWriter finishWriting];
}
Here I have used CVPixelBufferRef. Instead of this, I want to use the CVPixelBufferPoolRef in conjunction with AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor.
Can anybody provide an example which I can debug and use?
You are passing nil 'sourcePixelBufferAttributes', because of which the pixel buffer pool will not get created:
AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor *adaptor = [AVAssetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptor assetWriterInputPixelBufferAdaptorWithAssetWriterInput:writerInput sourcePixelBufferAttributes:nil];
Instead pass some attributes, for example:
NSDictionary *bufferAttributes = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
[NSNumber numberWithInt:kCVPixelFormatType_32ARGB], kCVPixelBufferPixelFormatTypeKey, nil];
Then you can use the pool to create the pixel buffers, like:
CVPixelBufferPoolCreatePixelBuffer (NULL, adaptor.pixelBufferPool, &pixelBuffer);
#Atulkumar V. Jain : great! good luck ^^
#Brian : you are right thanks, I correct it and I am getting it work now here is the working code (if someone else need it :-) )
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = NULL;
buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[imagesArray objectAtIndex:0] CGImage]];
CVPixelBufferPoolCreatePixelBuffer (NULL, adaptor_.pixelBufferPool, &buffer);
[adaptor_ appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:kCMTimeZero];
__block UInt64 convertedByteCount = 0;
dispatch_queue_t mediaInputQueue = dispatch_queue_create("mediaInputQueue", NULL);
static int i = 1;
int frameNumber = [imagesArray count];
[writerInput requestMediaDataWhenReadyOnQueue:mediaInputQueue usingBlock:^{
while (1){
if (i == frameNumber) {
break;
}
if ([writerInput isReadyForMoreMediaData]) {
CVPixelBufferRef sampleBuffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[imagesArray objectAtIndex:i] CGImage]];
NSLog(#"inside for loop %d",i);
CMTime frameTime = CMTimeMake(1, 20);
CMTime lastTime=CMTimeMake(i, 20); //i is from 0 to 19 of the loop above
CMTime presentTime=CMTimeAdd(lastTime, frameTime);
if (sampleBuffer) {
[adaptor_ appendPixelBuffer:sampleBuffer withPresentationTime:presentTime];
i++;
CFRelease(sampleBuffer);
} else {
break;
}
}
}
NSLog (#"done");
[writerInput markAsFinished];
[videoWriter finishWriting];
CVPixelBufferPoolRelease(adaptor_.pixelBufferPool);
[videoWriter release];
[writerInput release];
[imagesArray removeAllObjects];
}];
Instead of using "for" use this code :
dispatch_queue_t mediaInputQueue = dispatch_queue_create("mediaInputQueue", NULL);
[writerInput requestMediaDataWhenReadyOnQueue:mediaInputQueue usingBlock:^{
CVPixelBufferRef buffer = NULL;
buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[array objectAtIndex:0] CGImage]];
CVPixelBufferPoolCreatePixelBuffer (NULL, adaptor.pixelBufferPool, &buffer);
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:kCMTimeZero];
int i = 1;
while (writerInput.readyForMoreMediaData) {
NSLog(#"inside for loop %d",i);
CMTime frameTime = CMTimeMake(1, 20);
CMTime lastTime=CMTimeMake(i, 20); //i is from 0 to 19 of the loop above
CMTime presentTime=CMTimeAdd(lastTime, frameTime);
if (i >= [array count]) {
buffer = NULL;
}else {
buffer = [self pixelBufferFromCGImage:[[array objectAtIndex:i] CGImage]];
}
//CVBufferRetain(buffer);
if (buffer) {
// append buffer
[adaptor appendPixelBuffer:buffer withPresentationTime:presentTime];
i++;
} else {
// done!
//Finish the session:
[writerInput markAsFinished];
[videoWriter finishWriting];
CVPixelBufferPoolRelease(adaptor.pixelBufferPool);
[videoWriter release];
[writerInput release];
NSLog (#"Done");
[imageArray removeAllObjects];
break;
}
}
}];
I got it all working!

How to convert image sequences (PNG) into Animation File (gif/mov/others) (iPhone)?

I have a sequence of images (PNG format) in my iphone app. It is saved in the app's sandbox doc folder. How do I create animation file from these images?
I would prefer animated gif, but other types like video (mov/avi/etc) is ok too. I don't need audio. Just images. Thanks.
This works for me
-(void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// here u can replace with your images

NSString *fileName =#"myMovie.txt";
NSArray *documentPaths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDir = [documentPaths objectAtIndex:0];
NSString *filePath = [documentsDir stringByAppendingPathComponent:fileName];
[self writeImageAsMovie:imagesArray toPath:filePath size:CGSizeMake(320.0, 440.0)];
}
