@alcere Figured out the issue. You can work-around it by removing VideoFrameUriFetcher like this (it’s safe to do so):

private val imageLoader = ImageLoader.Builder(binding.root.context)
        .componentRegistry {
            add(VideoFrameFileFetcher(binding.root.context))
            add(VideoFrameDecoder(binding.root.context))
        }
        .logger(DebugLogger(Log.VERBOSE))
        .build()

The issue will be fixed in an upcoming patch release.
