MediaMetadataRetriever setDataSource throws IllegalArgumentException

by

Maybe you are running into this bug. If so try:

try {
    MediaMetadataRetriever retriever = new  MediaMetadataRetriever();
    Bitmap bmp = null;      
    retriever.setDataSource("http://www.myweb.com/myvideo.mp4", new HashMap<String, String>());
    bmp = retriever.getFrameAtTime();           
    videoHeight = (int) (bmp.getHeight()*((float)getIntWidth()/bmp.getWidth()));
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

If that doesn’t work you can always try FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever:

FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever retriever = new  FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();

try {
    Bitmap bmp = null;      
    retriever.setDataSource("http://www.myweb.com/myvideo.mp4"));
    bmp = retriever.getFrameAtTime();           
    videoHeight = (int) (bmp.getHeight()*((float)getIntWidth()/bmp.getWidth()));
} catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
}

retriever.release();
