[iOS client] External Microphone and Camera Orientation

[Antonio Mazzeo]

Hi to everyone,

I'm developing an iOS app to join a conference and I have two questions:

1) If I use a Bluetooth Headphone during the conference, the input source is the iPad Microphone.

Can I detect when a Bluetooth Headphone is connected and change audio input source?

My app interface is only landscape oriented, but when the camera starts, it has portrait orientation. I have to take iPad, rotate manually to portrait and landscape again. After the manual rotation, the camera is landscape as desidered.

Is there any way to start with landscape camera ?

Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad English,

Antonio

Hi Antonio,

1. Bluetooth Headphone:

We need to try this first. Maybe in this group someone has experience on the same case. They can help before we work on this.

2. Camera orientation with Landscape Oriented App:

Can you try to test it with our reference project and check if it also exists with it. Because finding problems with reference project is easier for us.

Hi Burak,

thanks a lot for your reply.

I'm trying the reference project and I checked the same "issue".

To better understand, if you start reference project on iPad and the device is on a desk (not in your hands), the UI is landscape, but when you publish, the camera is portrait, probably because when the iPad is on a desk, the orientation is unknown.

For my project, the iPad will fixed on a physical support and the user cannot move or rotate it...

Thanks for your help,

Antonio

Hi Burak,

the second question is solved.

The problem was the .unknown orientation when the iPad is on a desk, so i have forced the orientation landscape programmatically and now the camera starts in landscape mode (as desidered).

Now my big problem is first question: I'm not able to use Bluetooth Microphone.

I hope you can help me about this.

Many thanks,

Antonio

Hi Burak,

the first question (Bluetooth Microphone) is also solved.

Probably was an issue with my old bt headset.

I have tried with other bt headset and it is ok.

Thanks,

Antonio
