How to Get Video Thumbnail from onActivityResult Intent?

Question

Below is my code, I'm getting a null from ThumbnailUtils.createVideoThumbnail

Intent takePicture = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK, MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
takePicture.setType("video/*");
startActivityForResult(takePicture, 4);

My OnResultActivity Code for Video File Pick Intent:

if(requestCode == 4) {
    Uri selectedVideoUri = data.getData();
    Bitmap bitmap = ThumbnailUtils.createVideoThumbnail(selectedVideoUri.getPath(), MediaStore.Video.Thumbnails.MINI_KIND);
    Log.i("Video URI, ", String.valueOf(bitmap));
}

and also please help me how to get thumbnail from recorded video intent

Intent takeVideo = new Intent(MediaStore.ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE);
startActivityForResult(takeVideo, REQUEST_VIDEO_CAPTURE);

Answer 1

after some research I noticed that the file path shouldn't be uri

you should have something like this

final String noturipath = getRealPathFromUri();

Bitmap bitmap = ThumbnailUtils.createVideoThumbnail(noturipath, MediaStore.Video.Thumbnails.MICRO_KIND);

then create a method

    public string getRealPathFromUri (final Uri content)
    {
 // get intent from activity and added it here

    Uri uri;
    String stringUri;
    stringUri = uri.toString();
    }
