# AVCaptureOutput.DataDroppedReason.lateData

The system dropped data because you’ve configured capture output to drop data when delegate queue is in a blocked state, and there’s data to deliver.

## Declaration

```swift
case lateData
```

## Discussion

Discussion Use the alwaysDiscardsLateVideoFrames property of AVCaptureVideoDataOutput or the alwaysDiscardsLateDepthData property of AVCaptureDepthDataOutput to choose whether the capture output discards data.
