I am a novice developer developing a project involving taking video from iPhone and uploading it to server. For taking the video i am using the UIImagePickerController. It is perfect for my requirement. It allows me to add overlay views to camera and set videoMaximumDuration. But as per my requirement i will add a overlay view after the user selects the Use video option. in that view I will once again have a button which has the functionality of Retake video. It may seem out of logic, but as per the project's requirement it is logical, Trust me. I have googled it and most people had preferred to use AVSessionManager and create a custom camera control. But creating a custom controlled camera similar to UIImagePickerController is really taking a toll on my deadline. Also i want to reuse only the Retake functionality.
Is there any way to use the Retake video after selecting the Use Video option or are there any workarounds for this scenario ?
I am using Xcode 7.3 Swift 2.2
It seems that Apple doesn't allow users to reuse their functionality. The Retake functionality cannot be reused. So i had to go along with the default setup. So to achieve my requirement i just restarted the UIImagePickerController when i tap on my custom Retake button without any animation.
