Steps To Reproduce

I am just calling the CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll with the remote url …

Describe what you expected to happen:

I expected the video to be saved in the photos
I even tried it on the latest version and its still the same

Reproducible sample code

CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll(url, 'video')
        .then(response => {
          console.log('***RES**');
          console.log(response);
          console.log('***RES**');
          this.setState({isDownloading: false});
          this.refs.completionToast.show('Download completed!');
        })
        .catch(error => {
          console.log('*****');
          console.log(error);
          console.log('*****');
          this.setState({isDownloading: false});
          this.refs.completionToast.show(
            'There was a problem downloading the video, please try again later',
          );
        });

Does anyone have time to help and make a PR with a fix for this issue? There appears to be a solution at #159 (comment) . I’m happy to review and merge a well tested PR. Cheers

@bartolkaruza I just opened a new PR #172 with the fixes! Works perfectly for me!

I got it working also using react-native 0.63.2, react-native-cameraroll 1.4.0 and rn-fetch-blob 0.12.0

Here is a sample code:

const handleDownloadVideo = async () => {
    const ext = getExtFromUrl(video);

    try {
      const file = await RNFetchBlob.config({
        fileCache: true,
        appendExt: ext,
      }).fetch('GET', video, {type: 'video'});
      const path = file.path();

      await CameraRoll.saveToCameraRoll(path, 'video');

      file.flush();
    } catch (error) {
      console.log(error);
    }
  };
