@jackyleehong Can you help me fix this issue.

Is it a locally saved video?

[williardx]

I'm currently getting this issue on my debug build for Android devices for locally saved videos. Did anyone ever figure out how to fix it?

[williardx]

My issue ended up being passing media URIs instead of actual file paths to FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever. The fix there is to convert URIs like content:// to a file path.

Seems like getting the error in this issue was unrelated to my original issue of debug crashing. This issue is related to ProGuard rules and this should fix it: https://github.com/wseemann/FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever/issues/182.

Thanks for linking to the ProGuard issue! I knew my issue was ProGuard related, and searching for RNTrimmerManager.getVideoInfo led me here, whereas the other issue didn't show up at all.
