VideoLab

High-performance and flexible video editing and effects framework, based on AVFoundation and Metal.

Features

  • High-performance real-time video editing and exporting.
  • Highly free to combination of video, picture, audio.
  • Support audio pitch setting and volume adjustment.
  • Support for CALayer vector animations. So support complex text animations
  • Support keyframe animation.
  • Support for After Effect-like pre-compose.
  • Support transitions.
  • Support custom effects. Such as lut filter, zoom blur, etc.

Requirements

  • iOS 11.0+
  • Swift 5.0+

Installation

VideoLab is available through CocoaPods. Specify the following in your Podfile:

source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'
platform :ios, '11.0'
use_frameworks!

target '<Your Target>' do
  pod 'VideoLab'
end

Usage

Basic Concept

RenderLayer

RenderLayer is the most basic unit in the VideoLab framework. A video, image, audio can be a RenderLayer, or even just an effect can be a RenderLayer. RenderLayer is more like the concept of layer in After Effect.

RenderComposition

RenderComposition works as a composite, can set frame rate, canvas size, contains multiple RenderLayers, can set CALayer to support vector animation

VideoLab

VideoLab can be considered as a lab where AVPlayerItem, AVAssetExportSession, AVAssetImageGenerator can be generated according to RenderComposition.

Basic Usage

// 1. Layer 1
var url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "video1", withExtension: "MOV")
var asset = AVAsset(url: url!)
var source = AVAssetSource(asset: asset)
source.selectedTimeRange = CMTimeRange(start: CMTime.zero, duration: asset.duration)
var timeRange = source.selectedTimeRange
let renderLayer1 = RenderLayer(timeRange: timeRange, source: source)
    
// 1. Layer 2
url = Bundle.main.url(forResource: "video2", withExtension: "MOV")
asset = AVAsset(url: url!)
source = AVAssetSource(asset: asset)
source.selectedTimeRange = CMTimeRange(start: CMTime.zero, duration: asset.duration)
timeRange = source.selectedTimeRange
timeRange.start = CMTimeRangeGetEnd(renderLayer1.timeRange)
let renderLayer2 = RenderLayer(timeRange: timeRange, source: source)
    
// 2. Composition
let composition = RenderComposition()
composition.renderSize = CGSize(width: 1280, height: 720)
composition.layers = [renderLayer1, renderLayer2]

// 3. VideoLab
let videoLab = VideoLab(renderComposition: composition)

// 4. Make playerItem
let playerItem = videoLab.makePlayerItem()
  1. Create RenderLayer
  2. Create RenderComposition, set renderSize and layers
  3. Create VideoLab with renderComposition
  4. Make AVPlayerItem or AVAssetExportSession

More Advanced Usage

Transform

var center = CGPoint(x: 0.25, y: 0.25)
var transform = Transform(center: center, rotation: 0, scale: 0.5)
renderLayer1.transform = transform
  1. Create Transform with center, rotation and scale
  2. RenderLayer set transform

Audio Configuration

let audioConfiguration = AudioConfiguration()
let volumeRampTimeRange = CMTimeRange(start: CMTime.zero, duration: CMTime(seconds: 5, preferredTimescale: 600))
let volumeRamp1 = VolumeRamp(startVolume: 0.0, endVolume: 0.0, timeRange: volumeRampTimeRange)
audioConfiguration.volumeRamps = [volumeRamp1]
renderLayer2.audioConfiguration = audioConfiguration
  1. Create AudioConfiguration
  2. Create VolumeRamp with startVolume, endVolume and timeRange
  3. AudioConfiguration set volumeRamps
  4. RenderLayer set audioConfiguration

CALayer Animation

For exporting set your customized CALayer for composition

composition.animationLayer = <Your customized CALayer>

For play back add AVSynchronizedLayer to your view's layer, See more detail in Text Animation Demo.

Keyframe Animation

// 1. Keyframe animation
let keyTimes = [CMTime(seconds: 2, preferredTimescale: 600),
                CMTime(seconds: 4, preferredTimescale: 600),
                CMTime(seconds: 6, preferredTimescale: 600)]
let animation = KeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "blendOpacity",
                                  values: [1.0, 0.2, 1.0],
                                  keyTimes: keyTimes, timingFunctions: [.linear, .linear])
renderLayer1.animations = [animation]
    
var transform = Transform.identity
let animation1 = KeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "scale",
                                   values: [1.0, 1.3, 1.0],
                                   keyTimes: keyTimes, timingFunctions: [.quadraticEaseInOut, .quadraticEaseInOut])
let animation2 = KeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "rotation",
                                   values: [0, Float.pi / 2.0, 0],
                                   keyTimes: keyTimes, timingFunctions: [.quadraticEaseInOut, .quadraticEaseInOut])
transform.animations = [animation1, animation2]
renderLayer1.transform = transform
  1. Set keyTimes
  2. Create KeyframeAnimation with keyPath, values, keyTimes and timingFunctions
  3. Set animations for Animatable object (For example RenderLayer, Transform)

RenderLayerGroup (After Effect-like pre-compose)

let layerGroup = RenderLayerGroup(timeRange: timeRange)
layerGroup.layers = [renderLayer1, renderLayer2]
  1. Create RenderLayerGroup with timeRange
  2. Set sub layers for layerGroup. See more detail in Layer Group Demo.

Transition

We don't have a transition layer, so instead you can add a transform or operations to each RenderLayer to create a transition. See more detail in Transition Demo.

Custom Effects

// Filter
var filter = LookupFilter()
filter.addTexture(lutTextures[0], at: 0)
renderLayer.operations = [filter]

// Zoom Blur
var zoomblur = ZoomBlur()
animation = KeyframeAnimation(keyPath: "blurSize",
                              values: [0.0, 3.0],
                              keyTimes: keyTimes, timingFunctions: [.quarticEaseOut])
zoomblur.animations = [animation]
layerGroup1.operations = [zoomblur]
  1. Create customize Operation inherited from BasicOperation. BasicOperation also conforms to the Animatable protocol
  2. Set operations for RenderLayer.
