title: Continuous speech recogn. with SFSpeechRecognizer (ios10-beta)
body: <p>I am trying to perform cont. speech recognition using <code>AVCapture</code> on iOS 10 beta. I have setup <code>captureOutput(...)</code> to continuously get <code>CMSampleBuffers</code>. I put these buffers directly into <code>SFSpeechAudioBufferRecognitionRequest</code> which I set up previously like this: </p>
  
  <pre><code>... do some setup
    SFSpeechRecognizer.requestAuthorization { authStatus in
      if authStatus == SFSpeechRecognizerAuthorizationStatus.authorized {
        self.m_recognizer = SFSpeechRecognizer()
        self.m_recognRequest = SFSpeechAudioBufferRecognitionRequest()
        self.m_recognRequest?.shouldReportPartialResults = false
        self.m_isRecording = true
      } else {
        print("not authorized")
      }
    }
  .... do further setup
  
  
  func captureOutput(_ captureOutput: AVCaptureOutput!, didOutputSampleBuffer sampleBuffer: CMSampleBuffer!, from connection: AVCaptureConnection!) {
  
  if(!m_AV_initialized) {
    print("captureOutput(...): not initialized !")
    return
  }
  if(!m_isRecording) {
    return
  }
  
  let formatDesc = CMSampleBufferGetFormatDescription(sampleBuffer)
  let mediaType = CMFormatDescriptionGetMediaType(formatDesc!)
  if (mediaType == kCMMediaType_Audio) {
    // process audio here
    m_recognRequest?.appendAudioSampleBuffer(sampleBuffer)
  }
  return
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The whole things works for a few seconds. Then captureOutput is not called anymore. If I comment out the line appendAudioSampleBuffer(sampleBuffer) then the captureOutput is called as long as the app runs (as expected). Obviously putting the sample buffers into the speech recognition engine somehow blocks further execution. I guess that the available Buffers are consumed after some time and the process stops somehow because it can't get anymore buffers ???</p>
  
  <p>I should mention that everything that is recorded during the first 2 seconds leads to correct recognitions. I just don't know how exactly the SFSpeech API is working since Apple did not put any text into the beta docs. BTW: How to use  SFSpeechAudioBufferRecognitionRequest.endAudio() ?</p>
  
  <p>Anybody knows something here ?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
  Chris</p>
