I'm using Apple's AVCam source code to create a custom camera, I'm trying to toggle flash on/off but its not working. Here is my code, not sure what's wrong. I'm new to AVCam.
- (void) toggleFlash:(id)sender {
dispatch_async([self sessionQueue], ^{
AVCaptureDevice *currentVideoDevice = [[self videoDeviceInput] device];
AVCaptureDevicePosition currentPosition = [currentVideoDevice position];
if(currentPosition == AVCaptureDevicePositionUnspecified || currentPosition == AVCaptureDevicePositionBack) {
if([currentVideoDevice hasFlash]) {
[currentVideoDevice lockForConfiguration:nil];
[currentVideoDevice setFlashMode:AVCaptureFlashModeOn];
[currentVideoDevice unlockForConfiguration];
}
}
});
}
Its go through each line in code, and not logs any errors from this but still no luck.
P.S. In my case, torch/flash is off initially.
