how to add CIFilters to a video at runtime












2















I have recorded a video using avfoundation and after clicking on the video its start to play on a new viewcontroller. The problem is, I wouldn't be able to add filter effects to a playing video. Following is the code of what i have achieved.



import UIKit
import AVFoundation

class VideoPlayback: UIViewController {

let avPlayer = AVPlayer()
var avPlayerLayer: AVPlayerLayer!

var videoURL: URL!

@IBOutlet weak var videoView: UIView!

override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()

NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(finishVideo), name: NSNotification.Name.AVPlayerItemDidPlayToEndTime, object: nil)

avPlayerLayer = AVPlayerLayer(player: avPlayer)
avPlayerLayer.frame = view.bounds
avPlayerLayer.videoGravity = AVLayerVideoGravity.resizeAspectFill
videoView.layer.insertSublayer(avPlayerLayer, at: 0)

view.layoutIfNeeded()

let playerItem = AVPlayerItem(url: videoURL as URL)
avPlayer.replaceCurrentItem(with: playerItem)

avPlayer.play()

}

@objc func finishVideo()
{
print("Video Finished")
self.performSegue(withIdentifier: "unwindToFifteenSeconds", sender: self)
}

// Remove Observer
deinit {
NotificationCenter.default.removeObserver(self)
}

}


Above code is only to play a video that was captured by the camera using AVfoundation. I only need to add CIfilters to this played video.

          you can apply a filter to a video




          let filter = CIFilter(name: "CIGaussianBlur")!
          let asset = AVAsset(url: streamURL)
          let item = AVPlayerItem(asset: asset)
          item.videoComposition = AVVideoComposition(asset: asset, applyingCIFiltersWithHandler: { request in

          // Clamp to avoid blurring transparent pixels at the image edges
          let source = request.sourceImage.clampingToExtent()
          filter.setValue(source, forKey: kCIInputImageKey)

          // Vary filter parameters based on video timing
          let seconds = CMTimeGetSeconds(request.compositionTime)
          filter.setValue(seconds * 10.0, forKey: kCIInputRadiusKey)

          // Crop the blurred output to the bounds of the original image
          let output = filter.outputImage!.cropping(to: request.sourceImage.extent)

          // Provide the filter output to the composition
          request.finish(with: output, context: nil)
          })
