I know how to implement(i mean the logic),that is add pictures to a video file in a regular interval.but how can i do this with iphone sdk
Help me...
Assuming you mean a standard iPhone which is not jailbroken:
No, you can't. You could write an app that captured images of its own display when running, but you can't capture the screen in general (e.g. the home screen, or other apps' screens). It's not the sort of software Apple would allow, even if you found a way to hack around it (which I imagine wouldn't be possible).
What about this? It seems to indicate that video screen capture and saving (using the UIGetScreenImage function) is now allowed by Apple.

I wonder if it's possible to create a GUI for the iPhone home screen when an app is used?
Since I guess the answer is no (it was in the past, havn't found anything new about iOS 7): if I have an audio player, would it be possible to kind of 'route' it to the homescreen like the Podcasts app does it? I have looked for answers but only came across jailbroken solutions so far.
Is there anything one can do there? Thanks in advance.
No, the latest SDK (iOS 7.0) does not allow this, as in add custom GUI element to the lock screen. You can let the media player controls interact with your app if you are playing audio in the background.
And use the MPNowPlayingInfoCenter to display track, artist name and cover art on the lockscreen.
Apple doesn't allow any app to configure the Lock Screen in any way. You could have a music app which might display track details using the : MPNowPlayingInfoCenter.
Other than that all you can display is Notifications.
This isn't available on any version of iOS.
Am working in iPhone device camera based iOS application. I have one requirement to record video from our application even the device screen is off or in locked. I don't have iPhone, iPod and iPad. And also i don't know it is possible to record video in these conditions. Cound you please give me any idea on this? Looking forward your help. Thanks in advance.
No this is not possible. There's no other way to achieve this.
In some countries it's against the law to even take picture without sound effect, such as Japan for example. No wonder Apple don't allow to shoot pictures from locked screen.
How can i place my application icon on the lock screen of the iphone programmatically(something like the default camera button next to slide lock). Is it possible ? If so can any one guide me on this ??
EDITED
Hi all.. thanks for replies.. after seeing your replies i understand that this is not possible and its possible in jailbroken devices.. or is it possible to invoke my application through some gesture on lock screen ???
I dont think it is possible. I understand you want to implement something like android interface, but apple has its UI standards and has restricted access to that.
For Jail broken Device:
I'm not sure whether it work or not.
Please check these links:

You Tube 2
Note : Possibly it is for Jailbroken devices. Also I didn't checked these video's because it's restricted in our company :(
This is not possible as Apple does not allow that.
Please let me know how i can create a video of iPhone app similar to the below video.

You can use screen capture utilities like ScreenFlow. Also check out SimFinger to give that finger-press effect shown on the video.
As mentioned in the atebits.com blog, there is also Snapz Pro X for screen capture
I'm writing an iPhone App that allows people to share images that may be copyrighted(not illegally). The issue I am having is that I'm looking for a way to work around the screen capturing. Is there any possible way you can disable screen capturing or possibly distort the image in some way so capturing will be useless, maybe even block the images when a screen capture is trying to be taken?
That is impossible because it is embedded in iOS itself. Maybe some private APIs, but then there is no app store for your app.
Watermarking the images may be a good half-way solution.
iOS screen capture does not support capturing everything. It does not capture OpenGL or YouTube for example. So if you can manage to implement showing images using OpenGL instead of the simple way using UIKit they would not show up on a screen shot.
