Authoring Apple Immersive Video

Overview

Configure the sample code project

Running this sample requires downloading a zip file that contains an example QuickTime movie and supporting content. When the download completes, expand the zip file.

To run the app in Xcode, choose Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme, and update the command-line argument paths to reference the downloaded files:

--input

An Apple Immersive Video MV-HEVC video file without any necessary metadata.

--aime

An AIME file with the correct camera calibrations for the provided input file.

--usdz

An optional USDZ file to use for camera calibration instead of an AIME file. This argument also requires the --mask option.

--mask

An optional dynamic mask JSON data file to use for camera calibration instead of an AIME file. This argument also requires the --usdz option.

--output

The AIVU file to write that contains Immersive Media Support metadata.
