Always get java.lang.IllegalStateException: mediaMetadataRetriever.e…ETADATA_KEY_VIDEO_HEIGHT) must not be null

See original GitHub issue

I use light compressor to compress video right after completing it’s recording.

Before starting light compressor, I export the video with this code:

final ContentValues values = new ContentValues(5);
// The number 5 above, refer to these 5 lines
values.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.MIME_TYPE, "video/mp4");
values.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA, filePath);
values.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DURATION, videoDuration);
values.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.HEIGHT, videoHeight);
values.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.WIDTH, videoWidth);

Uri uri = context.getContentResolver().insert(MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI,
        values);
context.sendBroadcast(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE, uri));

I have added MediaStore.Video.MEDIA.HEIGHT value, but why the exception state that it’s null? Is it because the different value?
