# status

The status of the audio renderer.

## Declaration

```swift
var status: AVQueuedSampleBufferRenderingStatus { get }
```

## Discussion

Discussion A renderer begins with a status of AVQueuedSampleBufferRenderingStatus.unknown. As you add sample buffers to the queue for rendering, the renderer transitions to either AVQueuedSampleBufferRenderingStatus.rendering or AVQueuedSampleBufferRenderingStatus.failed. If the status is AVQueuedSampleBufferRenderingStatus.failed, check the value of the renderer’s error property for information on the error encountered. This property is key value observable.
