Same thing:
Task :react-native-create-thumbnail:compileDebugJavaWithJavac FAILED

After upgrading to 33 its not building.

Same issue.
Using React Native 0.70.6
Tried the previous stable version and now 2.0.0-rc.2
I managed to return to 31 and it worked fine. but other libraries require 33.

So If no solution is available, I need to find another library that works. :-(

Fork and clone the project. Go to the android/src/main/java/com/createthumbnail/CreateThumbnailModule.hava file.

Go to line 191 and replace the code

   Bitmap image = retriever.getFrameAtTime(time * 1000, MediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST_SYNC);
      retriever.release();
      if (image == null) {
          throw new IllegalStateException("File doesn't exist or not supported");
      }
      return image; 

to this

 Bitmap image = retriever.getFrameAtTime(time * 1000, MediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST_SYNC);
try {
    retriever.release();
} catch (Exception e) { // Catching Exception class as it's unclear what specific exception you're facing
    // Handle or log the exception here
    e.printStackTrace();
}

if (image == null) {
    throw new IllegalStateException("File doesn't exist or not supported");
}
return image;

Hello,

From Aug 31 API 33 is the minimum supported for sending updates to the Play Store.

I am having the same issue using the last version of react-native-create-thumbnail.

React Native: 0.71.6
