iOS PiP mode + camera usage #9437

Open Derad6709 opened 3 years ago

Derad6709 commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem you are facing? Yes, I can't use another app while calling. Describe the solution you'd like So, apple has recently updated their AVKit and included the opportunity to get PiP video calls and use a camera while in PiP. We have some discussion here. Hope you will introduce it in your beta app/in the main app/when apple releases iOS 15.

Last I checked PiP required the use of AVPlayer, which we (well, the WebRTC library really) don’t use.

Well, Apple introduced some new api in iOS 15, you can check the discussion via link above, just check messages after WWDC-2021 there. So, it is now available to get video from other source than AVPlayer, you can check it in that issue or at the documentation here.

Thanks for the heads up! Indeed it looks like this would work: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/avkit/avpictureinpicturevideocallviewcontroller since it allows us to present a UIView which is rendering the video.

Are there any updates?

saghul commented 3 years ago

We have requested the entitlement to be able to enable this.

Derad6709 commented 2 years ago

Hi! Any updates?

saghul commented 2 years ago

There is some more work to be done on our side to handle camera interruptions. We are not done yet.

Derad6709 commented 2 years ago

So, any updates?

saghul commented 2 years ago

No updates, sorry, we got busy with other things but this is still on the list.

Not yet.

chrismcclune commented 2 years ago

Does this mean that a near future update will support full PIP? Even on app background? For iOS 15 + that is.

saghul commented 2 years ago

That's the goal.
