i am using UIImagepickerController to take pictures from camera..i am using my own view over the camera view by using the cameraoverlayview property...i want to take a picture from camera when user clicks on a button in my custom view...i am using the following code
- (void)viewDidLoad {
imagePickerController = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePickerController.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePickerController animated:YES];
imagePickerController.showsCameraControls=NO;
imagePickerController.cameraOverlayView = self.customView;
}
- (IBAction) takePicture
{
[imagePickerController takePicture];
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
NSString *mediaType = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerMediaType];
imageView.image = [info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
- (void)imagePickerControllerDidCancel:(UIImagePickerController *)picker
{
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
but when i run this code it gives me error
ERROR: FigCreateCGImageFromJPEG returned -12905. Input (null) was 773625 bytes.
and i also get warnings for memory use level 2 and then level 1
and no image is displayed in the imageView.. can anyone help me what i might be doing wrong??
btw i am using iPhone 3G with iOS4.1 installed on it
UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage is a symbol (an NSString * constant) and you can't assume its value. Use as is, without quotes. Other than that, if you properly retain and create both the picker and the image view, it should work.

When i open Camera in my app it works fine, but when i navigate in my app and comes back to camera view and again try to open my camera in iPad, app crashes and gives me "Received memory warning". app working fine in iPhone and this issues is only coming in iPad.
My project was without ARC so i converted my project into ARC in the hope to get good results but still my app crashes on camera after little navigation.
can anybody tell me how to decrease memory space with iPad camera so that my apps stop receiving memory warning.
this is my code for camera
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera])
{
imagePicker=[[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.sourceType =UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
imagePicker.allowsEditing = NO;
//imagePicker.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFullScreen;
[self presentViewController:imagePicker animated:YES completion:nil];
}
This is where I get my Image
-(void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
[Array removeAllObjects];
[picker dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
image = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];
[array addObject:image];
image=nil;
}
and i have also try to use popOverview for camera but it also didn't work.
In my viewController where I'm calling UIImagePickerController I have used 5 animations, before i was calling animation in viewWillAppear, and app was crashing so i changed Animation calling to ViewDidLoad and camera starting working but only until I navigate to my last view and comes back to open camera again.
I am getting same problem so i do like this.
Set UIImagePickerController as static like this.
static UIImagePickerController *imagePicker;
When you get image in this deleget.
- (void) imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
#autoreleasepool {// to release memory
// Probelm is you image size.
// When you get this image it is vary large.
// And i hope you are creating multiple copy's of this image.
// when you get image in
UIImage *image = [info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
// In last set image as nil
image = nil;
}
}
Hope this will solve you problem.. :-)
Try to run your app without animation and then try, if it works then you need to improve your animations memory allocation, as animation needs a lot of memory.
Please try below code.try UIImagePickerController with in popover
if([UIImagePickerContrller isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera])
{
UIImagePickerController *controller = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
controller.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
controller.allowsEditing = YES;
controller.mediaTypes = [UIImagePickerController availableMediaTypesForSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary];
controller.delegate = self;
UIPopoverController *popController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:controller];
popController.popoverContentSize = CGSizeMake(350.0f, 500);
[popController presentPopoverFromRect: self.button.frame inView:self.button.superview
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionLeft animated:YES]
}
I'm trying to do a basic picture taking with iPhone. I used the following code to show the camera:
- (BOOL) startCameraControllerFromViewController: (UIViewController*) controller
usingDelegate: (id <UIImagePickerControllerDelegate,
UINavigationControllerDelegate>) delegate {
if (([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera] == NO)
|| (delegate == nil)
|| (controller == nil))
return NO;
UIImagePickerController *cameraUI = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
cameraUI.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;
// Displays a control that allows the user to choose picture or
// movie capture, if both are available:
cameraUI.mediaTypes =
[UIImagePickerController availableMediaTypesForSourceType:
UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
// Hides the controls for moving & scaling pictures, or for
// trimming movies. To instead show the controls, use YES.
cameraUI.allowsEditing = NO;
cameraUI.delegate = delegate;
[controller presentModalViewController: cameraUI animated: YES];
return YES;
}
This works fine, but then if I define the handling function:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
}
The imagePicker control freezes after pressing the Use button. It doesn't crash, doesn't throw any exception, the code is doing something, but on the screen I just see the frozen imagePicker control. Even if the handler is empty the control freezes. If I remove the handler, the camera disappears normally and shows the view from where the camera was activated...
Did I miss something essential here?
UPDATE:
I tried assigning the image to an UIImageView, the code executes, exits the function and that's it, the camera remains on the screen:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
[[picker parentViewController] dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
UIImage* original =[info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
[[self imgWLItemImage] setImage:[UIImage imageWithCGImage:original.CGImage scale:0.25 orientation:original.imageOrientation]];
}
Try this & check:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
UIImage* original =[info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
[[self imgWLItemImage] setImage:[UIImage imageWithCGImage:original.CGImage scale:0.25 orientation:original.imageOrientation]];
}
I'm relatively new to X Code

Anyone help me solve my problem. Here is my code

else

}
try this one hope it will help you
UIImagePickerController creates a pretty heavy object, So I don't think it is advisable to create multiple instances of it. May be this is what is causing the problem if you are doing the same.. It would be nice if you could share your code as well so we can have more insights into your problem
It is advisable to just use on image picker. From the code you provided you are trying to create two different imagepicker delegate methods, but in reality only one of them will be called both times.
You should create on instance of imagePicker and change its tag depending on which image you needed changed and then in the -didFinishPickingImage check if (picker.tag == SOME_TAG) then set appropriately.
I am using UIImagePickerController in an iOS app to save an image in context using UIGraphicsBeginImageContext/UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions.
I recently noticed that I picture I had saved and then displayed at a later date was highly pixelated; when I went back with the same code and imported the photo again, I got a great image. After playing with this for a while on my device, I figured out that the quality of the image saved depends on WHEN I pressed the 'Choose' button on the 'Move and Scale' screen.
If the image is a larger image and still loading when I press the button, the image is pixelated... if I wait until the image loads, it is fine. My question is, is there any way I can control when the user presses the 'Choose' button - is there any way to force them to wait until after the image is fully loaded? Or is there another way that would be better to approach this issue?
- (void)choosePhoto {
//NSLog(#"%s", __FUNCTION__);
UIImagePickerController *imagePicker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
imagePicker.delegate = self;
imagePicker.allowsEditing = YES;
imagePicker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentModalViewController:imagePicker animated:YES];
[imagePicker release];
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
//NSLog(#"%s", __FUNCTION__);
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
UIImage *pickedImage = (UIImage*)[info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage"];
[self setPersonImage:pickedImage];
}
- (void) setPersonImage:(UIImage *)pickedImage {
//NSLog(#"%s", __FUNCTION__);
NSManagedObjectContext *context = [[UIApplication sharedDelegate] managedObjectContext];
PersonImage *oldImage = person.image;
if (oldImage != nil) {
[context deleteObject:(NSManagedObject*)oldImage];
}
if (pickedImage != nil) {
// Create an image object for the new image.
PersonImage *newImageObject = [NSEntityDescription insertNewObjectForEntityForName:#"PersonImage" inManagedObjectContext:context];
[newImageObject setImage:pickedImage];
[person setImage:newImageObject];
}
else {
[person setImage:nil];
}
NSError *error;
if (![context save:&error]) {
exit(-1); // Fail
}
}
I suggest you implement your own Crop&Resize view controller.
set imagePicker.allowsEditing = NO.
create your view controller in - (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info and pass selected image to your view controller.
push your view controller to image picker: [picker pushViewController:yourVC animated:YES]
The image captured by the iPhone 4 camera is ~5 MB in size and it takes a while to display/render it. One option is to compress the image using UIImageJPEGRepresentation().
If you do not want to compress the image, you can use UIWebView to display the images. The UIWebViewDelegate has a method - (void)webViewDidFinishLoad:(UIWebView *)webView, that hits after the rendering has been completed. You can enable the choose button in this method (which is disabled initially).
I'm new to iPhone and I'm using this code to select an image from the iPhone library and show it in imageView. The library is showing images, but when I'm selecting the image, it doesn't appear in the image view..
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
UIImagePickerController * picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.delegate = self;
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypePhotoLibrary;
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
}
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info {
[picker dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
imageView.image = [info objectForKey:#"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage"];
}
Please can you tell me what's the problem with the code?
Try with:
- (void)imagePickerController:(UIImagePickerController *)picker didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:(NSDictionary *)info
{
UIImage *pickedImage = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];
imageView.image = pickedImage;
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}
UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage is a string constant that could be different from #"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage" string.
Then, it's safe and more clear to former set the image view, and latter to dismiss the modal view controller.
Pay attention that you should invoke dismissModalViewControllerAnimated: on self because you are dismissing the modal view controller "owned" by self.
Bye!
I fixed my issue of "grey box appearing instead of an image in UIImageView".
I forgot to make the Background color of the UIIMageView to be CLEAR COLOR. THe problem was solved by setting background color to clearColor.
Was using XIB and you should also check if anything is laid out wrong in Interface builder in case you are using interface builder to create UI.
