Image pixelete when using capture photo from video

[replytoashish008]

Image pixelate when using capture photo from video.I required a image of high quality photo. I am using the the following code :-

NextLevel.sharedInstance.capturePhotoFromVideo()

Properties that I am setting to shared instance of NextLevel:-

let nextLevel = NextLevel.sharedInstance
        nextLevel.deviceOrientation = .portrait
        nextLevel.videoConfiguration.maximumCaptureDuration = CMTimeMakeWithSeconds(maximumDuration, 600)
        
        //   video configuration
        nextLevel.videoConfiguration.bitRate = 2000000
        nextLevel.videoConfiguration.scalingMode = AVVideoScalingModeResizeAspectFill
        
        // audio configuration
        nextLevel.audioConfiguration.bitRate = 128000
        
        nextLevel.isVideoCustomContextRenderingEnabled = true
        nextLevel.videoConfiguration.preset = AVCaptureSessionPresetHigh

hi @replytoashish008

the quality of a photo from video is limited by the fact that you're encoding a video frame without changing modes, so there isn't much to do besides increasing the quality of the video itself.

and how we can increase quality of video?

Video quality comparision:

This we have recorded from our app:

This we have recorded from iphone default camera

It seems pixelation in our app. @piemonte can you please have a look.

Configuration of NextLevel can be done using the NextLevelVideoConfiguration object. If you're trying to match the default iOS camera application, then you need to look at what you're using for compression settings as well as your preset, both in NextLevelVideoConfiguration.
