I am trying to configure the photoeditorSDK for iOS, but am struggling.
My current issues are the following:
1. When a user clicks on the brush toolMenuItem, it does not do anything. Other toolMenuItems do what they are supposed to (e.g. Size).
Similarly, when a user adds text through the Text Menu Item, it works, however when they try to resize the text - they can't click it.
I believe these issues are related - that is why I opted them together.
Here's the code snippet used to configure the control:
NSError *dataCreationError;
NSURL *aLocalURL = [NSURL URLWithString:filepath];
NSData *imageData = [NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:aLocalURL.path options:0 error:&dataCreationError];
if (imageData && !dataCreationError) {
PESDKConfiguration *configuration = [[PESDKConfiguration alloc] initWithBuilder:^(PESDKConfigurationBuilder * _Nonnull builder) {
// See Configuration section
}];
NSMutableArray<PESDKPhotoEditMenuItem *> *menuItems = [[PESDKPhotoEditMenuItem defaultItems] mutableCopy];
[menuItems removeLastObject]; // Remove last menu item ('Magic')
PESDKPhotoEditViewController *photoEditViewController = [[PESDKPhotoEditViewController alloc] initWithData:imageData configuration:configuration];
photoEditViewController.delegate = self;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:photoEditViewController];
dispatch_async(dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[self.viewController presentViewController:navigationController animated:YES completion:nil];
});
} else if (dataCreationError) {
NSLog(#"Failed to open given path: %#", dataCreationError);
}
This is a bug on our side and will be fixed with the next release, which will go live this week. As a workaround, we updated your subscription. You just need to generate a new license file using our dashboard and replace the existing one in your app. This should fix both issues, but will add the Sticker tool to your menu items. You may remove it just like you did with the Magic tool.
If you have further questions, just let me know!
I started a blank tvOS project and created the following code:
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
AVPlayer *avPlayer = [AVPlayer playerWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#"http://www.myurl.com/myvideo.mp4"]];
AVPlayerLayer *avPlayerLayer = [AVPlayerLayer playerLayerWithPlayer:avPlayer];
avPlayerLayer.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height);
[self.view.layer addSublayer:avPlayerLayer];
[avPlayer play];
}
Nothing happens in the simulator though once the app loads. No video, nothing, just a blank translucent screen in my Apple TV simulator.
What's the proper way to play a sample video on app launch for an Apple TV app from an HTTP source?
I just pasted your code in my tvOS sample project, replaced the URL and ran it.
Nothing happened. Well, except for the fact that there's a log entry telling me that App Transport Security has blocked my URL request.
So I headed to the Info.plist, disabled ATS and upon next launch the video showed up just fine.
So if you're also using a non-HTTPS URL you're very likely running into this issue which is easily fixed by either using an HTTPS URL, disabling ATS completely or allowing specific non-HTTPs URLs in your Info.plist.
P.S.: I used this video for testing.
You could also use TVML and TVMLJS
https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/tvos/documentation/TVMLJS/Reference/TVJSFrameworkReference/
Adhere to the 'TVApplicationControllerDelegate' protocol and add some properties.
AppDelegate.h
#interface AppDelegate : UIResponder <UIApplicationDelegate, TVApplicationControllerDelegate>
...
#property (strong, nonatomic) TVApplicationController *appController;
#property (strong, nonatomic) TVApplicationControllerContext *appControllerContext;
Then add the following to 'didFinishLaunchingWithOptions'
AppDelegate.m
#define url #"http://localhost:8000/main.js"
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
// Override point for customization after application launch.
self.window = [[UIWindow alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
self.appControllerContext = [[TVApplicationControllerContext alloc] init];
NSURL *javascriptURL = [NSURL URLWithString:url];
self.appControllerContext.javaScriptApplicationURL= javascriptURL;
for (id key in launchOptions) {
id val=[launchOptions objectForKey:key];
NSLog(#"key=%# value=%#", key, val);
if([val isKindOfClass:[NSString class]]) [self.appControllerContext.launchOptions objectForKey:val];
self.appController = [[TVApplicationController alloc] initWithContext:self.appControllerContext window:self.window delegate:self];
}
return YES;
}
create a folder and add the following files
main.js
index.tvml
main.js
function launchPlayer() {
var player = new Player();
var playlist = new Playlist();
var mediaItem = new MediaItem("video", "http://trailers.apple.com/movies/focus_features/9/9-clip_480p.mov");
player.playlist = playlist;
player.playlist.push(mediaItem);
player.present();
//player.play()
}
//in application.js
App.onLaunch = function(options) {
launchPlayer();
}
careful with this url in the mediaItem
Set up a template of your choice.
index.tvml
<document>
<alertTemplate>
<title>…</title>
<description>…</description>
<button>
<text>…</text>
</button>
<text>…</text>
</alertTemplate>
</document>
open terminal and navigate to this folder then run
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000
make sure the port here is the port in your ObjC url. The Apple examples use 9001.

One issue I ran into was trying to play a local video file. It wouldn't work and there were constraint issues etc.
It looks like you can't use python to play the videos so either try apache or link to a video on the web.
This SO answer pointed me there.
The best way to play video in your app on AppleTV is going to be AVKit's AVPlayerViewController. If you use AVKit, you get a lot of stuff for free.
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/AVFoundation/Reference/AVPlayerViewController_Class/index.html
You simply add that player to the viewController's player property:
// instantiate here or in storyboard
AVPlayerViewController *viewController = [[AVPlayerViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
viewController.player = player;
[self addChildViewController:viewController];
[self.view addSubview:viewController.view];
[viewController didMoveToParentViewController:self];
// setup constraints, etc.
// play the video
[player play];
Also as mentioned below, make sure the video you're trying to play is coming either from an HTTPS connection or that you've disabled App Transport Security by setting the proper flags in the plist.
I didn't like the answers which messed about with subviews etc.
For full-screen playback, I use the following (Non-ARC) code:
// Play the stream
NSString *wifiStreamAddress = #"http://yourmoviefile.m3u8";
AVPlayer *player = [[AVPlayer alloc] initWithURL: [NSURL URLWithString: wifiStreamAddress] ];
AVPlayerViewController *playerViewController = [[AVPlayerViewController alloc] init];
playerViewController.player = player;
// Keep pointers to player and controller using retained properties:
self.player = player;
self.playerViewController = playerViewController;
[player release];
[playerViewController release];
[self presentViewController: playerViewController animated: true completion: ^{
[self.player play];
}];
This works really neat, animating presentation and fading back to previous view when you tap the MENU button. Also, it works great with the remote control using all the standard functions.
Its working for me.
May be helpful for you
-(void)playAction
{
AVPlayerViewController *viewController = [[AVPlayerViewController alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
viewController.player = player;
[self addChildViewController:viewController];
[self.view addSubview:viewController.view];
[viewController didMoveToParentViewController:self];
// play the video
[player play];
}
Swift version
Make a PlayViewController which inherit the AVPlayerViewController.
In the viewcontroller which has play button, add such function
#IBAction func onClickPlay(sender: AnyObject) {
let playerVC = PlayerViewController()
playerVC.playVideo(urlString)
[self.presentViewController(playerVC, animated: true, completion: nil)]
}
In the PlayerViewController
func playVimeoVideo(link : String) {
player = AVPlayer(URL: NSURL(string: link)!)
player?.play()
}
Notice
The question and some answers may be a little misleading so that you might think that only the url with ".mp4" at the end can be played by the Apple TV. I believed so at the first time I saw the post. It is not true. In fact, with AVPlayerViewController you can play Vimeo streaming video! The link to the stream video is not like https://vimeo.com/92655878. It is possible to get it from Vimeo site by extracting it from a json file, which can be downloaded from this link
let link = "https://vimeo.com/api/oembed.json?url=https%3A//vimeo.com/" + videoId
To be able to get correct url for the video, you need to use the Vimeo Pro user access to get the stream link for a specific video.
I have a plus button in my primary view controller of a UISplitViewController and i want to present something modally in my detail view, just like apple does when adding a new contact in address book in iPad. I have tried everything but nothing. I managed to do it but when i am trying to embed my presented view controller into a UINavigation controller then my presented controller covers the full screen. Any suggestions? Here is my code:
UINavigationController *navController = [self.splitViewController.viewControllers lastObject];
DetailTableViewController *controller = (DetailTableViewController *)navController.topViewController;
controller.definesPresentationContext = YES;
controller.providesPresentationContextTransitionStyle = YES;
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main" bundle:nil];
EditTableViewController *etvc = (EditTableViewController *)[storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"EditTableViewController"];
UINavigationController *nav = [[UINavigationController alloc]initWithRootViewController:etvc];
etvc.patient = patient;
if (IDIOM == IPAD)
{
etvc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
[controller presentViewController:nav animated:YES completion:nil];
} else {
[self presentViewController:nav animated:YES completion:nil];
}
I just successfully solved this problem by creating a custom segue whose implementation is:
- (void)perform
{
UIViewController *ctrl = self.sourceViewController;
UIViewController *dest = self.destinationViewController;
dest.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
[ctrl presentViewController:dest animated:YES completion:nil];
}
I'm seeing the behavior I want by invoking this segue from my detail view controller on the modal view I want to overlay it.
I think where your code is going haywire is here:
etvc.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
I think it should be:
nav.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCurrentContext;
Though I haven't tested it.
Note that the Apple docs suggest that modalPresentationStyle is ignored on the iPhone (or on "horizontally compact devices"), so your "IS_IPAD" check may be redundant.
Hope this helps!
i want to add Airdrop sharing to my spritekit game
It dosent work using this code:
UIActivityViewController *controller = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:objectsToShare applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil]
I am thinking the issue is where you have the code you posted. You possibly have it in viewDidLoad of your UIViewController.
Do this in your UIViewController :
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
// assuming you are creating objectsToShare here or before this point
UIActivityViewController *controller = [[UIActivityViewController alloc] initWithActivityItems:objectsToShare applicationActivities:nil];
[self presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil]
}
I believe the issue is that the view is not fully configured when you are trying to add your UIActivityViewController.
I believe that the bounds and some other properties of the view are not yet properly configured in the viewDidLoad method, which results in a failure to display it.
I have the problem depicted in the image when testing my app on a real device (iPhone 3G, 3.1.3).
It is fine in the simulator (xcode 3 with ios 4.1 sdk). sorry, can't post images yet, this is my first question here.

I have the following code in the implementation of the annotation:
- (id)initWithLocation:(CLLocationCoordinate2D)coord {
self = [super init];
if (self) {
coordinate = coord;
}
return self;
}
And this is part of the header file:
#interface MyAnnotation : NSObject <MKAnnotation>
And this is where I create a new one (inside a loop):
MyAnnotation *theAnnotation = [[MyAnnotation alloc] initWithLocation:theCoordinate];
theAnnotation.title = [single objectForKey:#"address"];
theAnnotation.objID = [single objectForKey:#"id"];
[self.mapView addAnnotation:theAnnotation];
[theAnnotation release];
Any ideas about this? I don't know what to look :/
You could try to bring the (annotation)view to the front, when tapping on it.
So, when someone taps on an annotation, you should call [[self superview] bringSubviewToFront:self];
Best,
