I'm getting a warning sign, saying
Possible: Unhandled Promise Rejection: Error: Error decoding image data
This is my code.
for (let media of mediaArray) {
await CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll(
'https://someurl.mp4',
);
}
I was able to get this to work with a url that has a .jpg, but when I tried a .mp4 url, it doesn't work. I know the url is correct, but not sure why I'm getting this? Am I missing something if I have to save both either photo or video?
For anyone that was interested in this, I found out that CameraRoll doesn't support video files that are coming from remote sources.
What I did was use rn-fetch-blog
to save the file into the computer and then finally used CameraRoll as a supplement.
This snippet allows you to go through an array of photos and videos
selectedMedia.map(index => {
let extension = cleanUrl.split('.').pop();
RNFetchBlob.config({
fileCache: true,
appendExt: extension,
})
.fetch('GET', index.mediaUrl)
.then(res => {
// the temp file path
CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll(res.path());
});
});
