# deliversPreviewSizedOutputBuffers

A Boolean value that indicates whether the output is configured to deliver preview-sized buffers.

## Declaration

```swift
var deliversPreviewSizedOutputBuffers: Bool { get set }
```

## Discussion

Discussion AVCaptureVideoDataOutput produces preview-sized buffers, which are approximately the size of the screen, when its automaticallyConfiguresOutputBufferDimensions property is true. If you wish to manually set this property, you must first set automaticallyConfiguresOutputBufferDimensions to false.
