AVFoundation Video Recording

Hey,

So I am trying to record video in my app using AVFoundation. My code below isn't compiling. It keeps telling me:

     'Cannot invoke startRecordingToOutputFileURL with an argument of list type   ('NSURL, AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate.protocol)

Here is the code:

@IBAction func recordButton(sender: AnyObject) {

   let videoxDelegate = AVCaptureVideoDataOutputSampleBufferDelegate.self
    let fileOutput = AVCaptureMovieFileOutput()
    captureSession.addOutput(fileOutput)
    let documentsPath = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(.DocumentDirectory, .UserDomainMask, true)[0] as! NSString
    let outputPath = "\(documentsPath)/output.mov"
    let outputFileUrl = NSURL(fileURLWithPath: outputPath)

 // ***** HERE IS THE PROBLEM
    fileOutput.startRecordingToOutputFileURL(outputFileUrl, videoxDelegate )

}

Hope someone can help, i've been stuck for a while!

Thanks in advance! Yousef
