Hi , I am posting this, if anyone struck like me to access Individual h264 frame data while recording from captureOutput (iPhone Camera). and I found the below SDK. [http://www.foxitsolutions.com/iphone\_h264\_sdk.html](http://www.foxitsolutions.com/iphone_h264_sdk.html) The good thing is, it supports 720p encoding! and a few lines of code to encode. Before I tried with ffmpeg and x264 but the performance is very poor and also x264 is GPL.So I tried a couple of other third-party libraries and got this one. In my case I used it in camera cpatureOutput call back and encode the video and send the h264 frames into my server in real time. It just suits perfect for my scenario. You can ask them for a demo too. ---

Thanks. It looks like it might fit with my application. Currently I am using AVFoundation, FFmpeg (pts/dts filter) and librtmp to stream from the iPhone to Wowza. ---

Is it possible to share the code with me? I have limited information about IOS programing, and I need to capture and stream live to wowza from iOS devices? ---
