Hello Terry, The thing that tripped me up initially with mergAV (even though it was clearly part of the demo stack) was the two-part request for:
mergAVRequestMediaAccess “audio" which, when granted then requests mergAVRequestMediaAccess “video” I didn’t figure that I needed to request “audio” access for scanning a QR code. Fortunately Mike Kerner straightened me out. Audio access is required in order to use the camera. If that isn’t the problem then give another shout. (I switched from using mergZXing to mergAV when building an app that let my students scan QR codes.) -- Scott Morrow Elementary Software (Now with 20% less chalk dust!) web http://elementarysoftware.com/ email sc...@elementarysoftware.com office 1-800-615-0867 ------------------------------------------------------ > On Sep 5, 2016, at 11:27 PM, Terry Judd <terry.j...@unimelb.edu.au> wrote: > > Hi – I’m trying to build a simple iOS app to capture and decode QR codes (for > marking student attendance at compulsory activities) and am a bit stuck > getting the mergAV external to work its magic. > > I can capture an image ok using the mergAVPick() function with the rear > camera but I was thinking that perhaps I should be using > mergAVCamCaptureImage instead?
