Audio & Video Starting Point
Multimedia technologies in iOS let you access the sophisticated audio and video capabilities of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. Specialized classes let you easily add basic features such as iPod library playback and movie capture, while rich multimedia
APIs support advanced solutions.
iOS上的多媒体技术可以让你让你访问iPhone,iPad和iPod touch上的复杂的音频和视频。专门的类库 让你轻松添加基本特性如iPod图书馆音乐播放、和电影捕获,并且丰富的多媒体api提供了更多的先进的解决方案。
选择你需要的技术
Choose the right technology for your needs:
- To play the audio items in a user’s iPod library, or to play local or streamed movies, use the Media Player framework. Classes in this framework automatically support sending audio and video
to AirPlay devices such as Apple TV.
播放用户iPod图书馆里的音频,或者播放本地或流电影,使用媒体播放器框架。在这个框架里的类 提供发送 音频和视频 到 AirPlay devices （如苹果电视）的 功能。
- To easily add picture or movie capture to your app, employ dedicated classes and functions from the
UIKit framework.
想要轻松添加图片或影片到你的应用程序,使用UIKit框架中相关的类和函数。
- For basic audio recording and playback, including stereo panning, synchronization, and metering, use the audio classes from the
AV Foundation framework.
基本的音频录制和播放, 包括立体平移、同步、和计量,使用 AV Foundation framework中的 audio classes 。
- To add high-performance positional audio playback to your OpenGL-based game or other app, take advantage of the open-source OpenAL (Open Audio Library) API.
添加高性能音频播放 到你的OpenGL-based游戏或其他应用程序,利用开源OpenAL(打开音频库)的API。
- To work directly with audio and video data—for high performance or advanced solutions such as VoIP, streaming, virtual music instruments, or MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface)—use the
AV Foundation framework, the Assets Library framework, the
various Core Audio frameworks (including the Core Audio, Audio Toolbox, and Audio Unit frameworks), and the
Core MIDI framework.
工作直接与 音频 和视频数据 相关 ，追求 高性能和先进解决方案如VoIP、流媒体、虚拟乐器,或MIDI(乐器数字接口) 使用 AV的基础框架,资产库框架,各种音频核心框架(包括核心音频,音频工具箱和音频单元框架),和MIDI核心框架。

PS：这里很重要
To play streamed audio content, such as from a network connection, use an
AVPlayer object as described in Playback in
AV Foundation Programming Guide. You can also play certain Internet audio files by using the
MPMoviePlayerController class; for sample code that shows how, see
MoviePlayer.
播放音频流,比如通过网络连接,使用一个AVPlayer对象播放，AV Foundation Programming Guide描述了Playback。你也可以播放某些互联网音频文件使用MPMoviePlayerController类;示例代码,见MoviePlayer。
To play audio files with stereo panning, synchronization, and metering, use the
AVAudioPlayer class. To record audio, use the
AVAudioRecorder class. Apple recommends these classes for audio playback and recording when you do not need direct access to audio data.
立体声播放音频，摇滚、同步和计量,使用AVAudioPlayer类。录音,使用AVAudioRecorder类。苹果建议这些类音频播放和记录时,您不需要直接使用音频数据。
