Hi all,

I see that MergAV's media access request (mergAVRequestMediaAccess) requires both audio and video before it will set up a camera view etc.

My app doesn't need audio access at all, and as Apple are stringent/anal about explaining why users will need to grant access the microphone I'd rather not have to ask for something I won't use.

Is there a way around this?

I'm running 8.1.8 and Xcode 9.1 at the moment. Happy to update both if it fixes the problem...

Thanks,
ian.

Hello Ian,

Yes, this is a bug which is fixed in LC 8.1.10 / 9.0.0 / 9.0.1 RC-1

So download one of these versions, and use this to disable audio access:

Code: Select all

...
mergAVCamSet "microphone", empty
mergAVCamCreate
...
...

Best,
Panos

Thanks Panos, I hadn't realised this was fixed
