Not compatible with Capacitor 3.0

[WIStudent]

Capacitor 3.0 sets the iOS deployment target to 12.0, but capacitor-video-recorder uses 11.0 as deployment target, resulting in the following error when trying to build the iOS app: Compiling for iOS 11.0, but module 'Capacitor' has a minimum deployment target of iOS 12.0

I managed to override the deployment target using a post_install hook in my root projects Podfile myProject/ios/App/Podfile:

post_install do |installer|
  installer.generated_projects.each do |project|
    project.targets.each do |target|
      if target.name === 'TeamhiveCapacitorVideoRecorder'
        target.build_configurations.each do |config|
          config.build_settings['IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET'] = '12.0'
        end
      end
    end
  end
end

But now i am getting errors in VideoRecorder.swift

Hi @WIStudent, I haven't updated Capacitor to 3.0. But I still can't start camera on iOS. Please, could you help me? After adding some code to MainActivity.java, Android started to work perfectly. But iOS doesn't even show Camera Preview, I just have black screen (stackPosition: 'back') 🤔 How did you start Camera on iOS before Capacitor 3.0?

I would really appreciate your help 🙏

Please don't ask off topic questions in issues. If you have an unrelated problem open a new issue.

We are using this plugin just as described in its documentation. Although we already replaced it on Android with our own internal plugin last year because capacitor-video-recorder stopped working on Android 11.

Since iOS 14.3 WKWebView supports the getUserMedia and MediaRecorder web apis so now we are currently working on replacing capacitor-video-recorder and our own plugin with a pure web implementation in our app.
