Import local media resources

You can use the AliyunImporter class to add media clips and generate a source video file as the input parameter of the AliyunIEditor class. 

//0. Specify the configuration path and output video resolution.
NSString *taskPath = @"xxx"; 

//1. Create an instance.
AliyunImporter *importer = [[AliyunImporter alloc] initWithPath:taskPath outputSize:outputResolution];

//2.1 Add a video.
AliyunClip *videoClip = [[AliyunClip alloc] initWithVideoPath:@"your video path" animDuration:0];
[importer addMediaClip:videoClip];

//3. Configure output parameters.
AliyunVideoParam *param = [[AliyunVideoParam alloc] init];
param.fps=30; // Frame rate
param.gop=90; // Keyframe interval
param.videoQuality=AliyunVideoQualityHight; // Video quality
param.scaleMode=AliyunScaleModeFill; // Scaling mode
param.codecType=AliyunVideoCodecHardware; // Encoding mode
[importer setVideoParam:param];

//4. Generate the configuration file for video sources.
[importer generateProjectConfigure];

//5. Create an editor.
 self.editor = [[AliyunEditor alloc] initWithPath:taskPath
                                             preview:self.preView];

Import videos from the draft box

The editing status is finally recorded in the draft box in the form of the project configuration. You can restore the editing status from the draft box as long as the project configuration file is provided. For more information, see Draft box.
