Jan,
Some fascinating workarounds there - all over my head unfortunately.
One of the posts in that thread is entitled:
You can also take a frame from a video stream to capture a (not full resolution) image.
and references:
https://github.com/CyberAgent/iOS-N...5af3b8273a/Source/Camera/NBUCameraView.m#L699
which looks like it takes frames from the video stream.
For my ultimate objective - which is to get an average "brightness" of the frame - I suspect it will not matter very much if the image is not full resolution.
So maybe the solution to both avoiding pseudo camera shutter sound
and delivering YUV is to just capture video frames?
I would really appreciate this.
Thanks in anticipation...
