CGImageSourceCreateWithURL
return always nil. I am passing [NSURL fileURLWithPath:getImagePath]. I have double check that image is there with url i am passing. Please find out the code below.
NSURL *imageURL = [self getImageAtTime:i withTitle:@"gifImage"];
if (!imageURL) {
NSLog(@"imageURL is null");
return;
}
CGImageSourceRef source = CGImageSourceCreateWithURL((__bridge CFURLRef)imageURL, NULL);
if (source == NULL) {
NSLog(@"Source is NULL");
}
CGImageDestinationAddImageFromSource(destination, source, i+1, (__bridge CFDictionaryRef)frameProperties);
while creating CGImageSourceRef source = CGImageSourceCreateWithURL((__bridge CFURLRef)imageURL, NULL);
i just forgot to specify property of image. Here is the below working code of CGImageSourceCreateWithURL
NSURL *imageURL = [self getImageAtTime:i withTitle:@"gifImage"];
if (!imageURL) {
NSLog(@"imageURL is null");
return;
}
CGImageSourceRef source = CGImageSourceCreateWithURL((__bridge CFURLRef)imageURL, NULL);
if (source == NULL) {
NSLog(@"Source is NULL");
}
//get all the metadata in the image
NSDictionary *metadata = (__bridge NSDictionary *)CGImageSourceCopyPropertiesAtIndex(source, 0, NULL);
//make the metadata dictionary mutable so we can add properties to it
NSMutableDictionary *metadataAsMutable = [metadata mutableCopy];
NSMutableDictionary *EXIFDictionary = [[metadataAsMutable objectForKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyExifDictionary]mutableCopy];
NSMutableDictionary *GPSDictionary = [[metadataAsMutable objectForKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyGPSDictionary]mutableCopy];
NSMutableDictionary *RAWDictionary = [[metadataAsMutable objectForKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyRawDictionary]mutableCopy];
NSMutableDictionary *GIFDictionary = [[metadataAsMutable objectForKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyGIFDictionary]mutableCopy];
if(!EXIFDictionary)
EXIFDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary dictionary] init];
if(!GPSDictionary)
GPSDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary dictionary] init];
if(!RAWDictionary)
RAWDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary dictionary] init];
if(!GIFDictionary)
GIFDictionary = [[NSMutableDictionary dictionary] init];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"camera coord Latitude"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSLatitude];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"camera coord Longitude"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSLongitude];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"camera GPS Date Stamp"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSDateStamp];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"camera direction (heading) in degrees"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSImgDirection];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"subject coord Latitude"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSDestLatitude];
[GPSDictionary setObject:@"subject coord Longitude"
forKey:(NSString*)kCGImagePropertyGPSDestLongitude];
[EXIFDictionary setObject:@"[S.D.] kCGImagePropertyExifUserComment"
forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyExifUserComment];
[EXIFDictionary setValue:@"69 m" forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyExifSubjectDistance];
[GIFDictionary setObject:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:duration/frameCount] forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyGIFDelayTime];
//Add the modified Data back into the image’s metadata
[metadataAsMutable setObject:EXIFDictionary forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyExifDictionary];
[metadataAsMutable setObject:GPSDictionary forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyGPSDictionary];
[metadataAsMutable setObject:RAWDictionary forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyRawDictionary];
[metadataAsMutable setObject:GIFDictionary forKey:(NSString *)kCGImagePropertyGIFDictionary];
CGImageDestinationAddImageFromSource(destination, source, 0, (__bridge CFDictionaryRef)metadataAsMutable);
// CGImageDestinationAddImage(destination, image.CGImage, (__bridge CFDictionaryRef)frameProperties);
CFRelease(source);
