I want to capture video in my app without using UIImagePickerController.
I want to be able to display it too on the iPhone screen ib the same time.
I tried to find an article and tutorial on how to do it but I couldn't find it.
Does apple allow to do stuff like this or only use the UIImagePickerController?
thx
Take a look at the AVCam sample from the Apple developer site. It shows you everything you need to know.
Also read about the AVFoundation framework.

I have searched everywhere and tried mixing and matching different bits of code but I haven't found anything that works or anyone with the same question.
Basically I want to be able to create video demos of iPhone apps that include standard UIKit elements and also the image coming from the camera (video preview layer). I don't want to use airPlay or iOS simulator to project onto the desktop then capture because I want to be able to make videos outside in public. I have successfully been able to video capture the screen with this code but with the video preview layer being blank. I read that its because its using openGL and what I'm capturing is from the CPU, not the GPU. I have successfully used GPUImage from Brad Larson to capture the video preview layer but it doesn't capture the rest of the UIView. I have seen code that combines both and converts to an image but I'm not sure if that would be too slow for realtime video capture. Can someone point me in the right direction?
It might not be the cleanest solution, but it will work nonetheless: did you consider jailbreaking? I hope Apple does sue me for this one but if you really want to record your screen then simply install a screen recorder. Enough options can be found: http://www.google.be/search?q=iphone+jailbreak+record+screen
And if you don't like it: recover your phone for a previous backup.
(for the record: I'm against jailbreaking and posting this from a productivity point of view)
I want to capture video in my app without using UIImagePickerController. my application should record the video with a hidden camera front, and only after showing the recording.
I am new to me please help me with the programming
You must use AVFoundation for what you want, check out this question
for more information on the matter.
I'm sorry if this is already answered...
All I need is how to fire up the rear facing camera and display it in an image view...no taking pictures, no accessing the photo library, just turning on the camera...simple.
I believe AVCapture is the thing to use, but anything I look into goes way deep than I need and I'm just not that smart. Any help is appreciated.
THANKS!
The AVCam sample from Apple is the best place to start. Be warned that the seemingly simple task of displaying a live video preview from the camera is non-trivial.
I was wondering how to go about creating an image app for the iphone. I know how to create an iphone app. I was just wondering what the best way to make an image app is. I want the user to be able to import an image, and then the app will add an effect to it like blur it or tint it or warp it. How can I do this? I've been searching forever. Please help.
I encourgae you to look into a few image processing libraries for iOS that are out there. A search on Google will return a few options..
Here's one > http://mobileorchard.com/a-simple-iphone-image-processing-library/
You should also look into the sample code provided by Apple on GLImageProcessing > http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#samplecode/GLImageProcessing/Introduction/Intro.html
Regarding importing pictures into your app; there are several examples out there on how to do so through the UIIMagePickerController. Here's one >

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
