reading QR-code on Mac from an imported image

[Andrew at MidWest Coast Media]

You should be able to use mergAV with the source set as library or album. I use the live camera (“video”) to read barcodes.
	mergAVRequestMediaAccess "video"


--Andrew Bell

on mouseDown

	mergAVRequestMediaAccess --“audio” ## DEPRECATED parameter requirement

end mouseDown


on mouseUp

	if platform() <> "iphone" then

		answer "Sorry, the barcode scanner feature is currently unavailable on this platform."

		exit mouseUp

	else

		wait 500 milliseconds with messages

		mergAVCamStartBarcodeReader

	end if // platform()

end mouseUp


on mergAVCamBarcodeFound pBarcode, pType

	answer pType && “barcode found” & cr & pBarcode

	mergAVCamDelete

end mergAVCamBarcodeFound
