How to create the video from images located in SD card in Android using JavaCV/OpenCV

Question

Sorry for bad English...:(

I want to create video from images located on SD Card and also each frame/image stay on screen min 1 sec or any value(like 2,3,4 sec).

I am using the javacv/opencv library for that.

I have use the below code but not work for me i get error given below.

I have put my method and error log also, please help me as soon as possible. Thanks in advance

public void createVideo()
    {
          String path ="/mnt/sdcard/images/";
          File folder = new File(path);
              File[]  listOfFiles = folder.listFiles(); 
              IplImage[]  iplimage = (IplImage[]) new IplImage[listOfFiles.length];
              if(listOfFiles.length>0)
              {
                 for (int j = 0; j < listOfFiles.length; j++)
                 {
                     String files="";      
                     if (listOfFiles[j].isFile())
                     {
                         files = listOfFiles[j].getName();
                     }  
                      String[] tokens = files.split("\\.(?=[^\\.]+$)");
                      String name=tokens[0];
                      System.out.println(" j " + name);
                      iplimage[j]=cvLoadImage("/mnt/sdcard/images/"+name+".jpg");
                 }

              }

              File videopath = new File(path);
              videopath.mkdirs();
              FFmpegFrameRecorder recorder = new  FFmpegFrameRecorder(path+"video"+System.currentTimeMillis()+".mp4",320,480);

               try {
                   recorder.setVideoCodec(13); //CODEC_ID_MPEG4                           
                   //CODEC_ID_MPEG1VIDEO
                   recorder.setVideoBitrate(50);
                   recorder.setFrameRate(10);                    
                   recorder.setPixelFormat(2); //PIX_FMT_YUV420P
                   recorder.start();
                   int x = 0;
                   int y = 0;
                  for (int i=0;i< 300 && x<listOfFiles.length;i++)
                     {
                       recorder.record(iplimage[x]);
                      if (i>(y+10)) {
                          y=y+1;
                          x++;
                      }
                     }
                   recorder.stop();
                  }
               catch (Exception e){
                   e.printStackTrace();

// mp4 video

This is working code. I am using this code to make video from images which are located in sdcard.

private class VideoCreate extends AsyncTask<Void, Void, Void> {

    String Videopath;

    @Override
    protected void onPreExecute() {
        super.onPreExecute();
        System.out.println("VideoCreate onPreExecute call ");
        dismissProgressDialog();
        showProgressDialog();
    }

    @Override
    protected Void doInBackground(Void... params) {

        // try {

        temp_video_file_name_last = System.currentTimeMillis()
                + FileUtils.VIDEO_TYPE_MP4;
        // Vidopah = FileUtils.getScreenShotDirectory(getActivity(),
        // FileUtils.ATTACHMENT_TYPE_VIDEO)
        // + File.separator
        // + video_file_name_last;
        Videopath = getTempVideoDirectory() + File.separator
                + temp_video_file_name_last;

        File pF = new File(tempVideoShotDirecotry);
        if (!pF.exists()) {
            System.out.println("pF not exist");
            pF.mkdirs();
        }
        if (pF.exists()) {
            System.out.println("pF  exist");
        }
        int imgCounter = 0;

        File folder = new File(tempVideoShotDirecotry);

        File[] listOfFiles = folder.listFiles();
        System.out.println("listOfFiles size::" + listOfFiles.length);
        if (listOfFiles.length > 0) {
