videokit.so load fail in marshmallow and above API ffmpeg android

Question

I am working with ffmpeg commands for various operation on videos & images & its working fine on devices having API 22 & below version but when i set targetSdkVersion 23 or 24 at that time my app is going to crash and i am getting :

error like videokit.so load fail:/data/user/0/packagename/lib/libvideokit.so.

I am getting the same error and could not find any solution yet, have you resolved this ? — Nooruddin Lakhani, Oct 21 '16 at 08:43
@NooruddinLakhani no still could not found any solution. is seems ffmpeg library error for API level 23 and above. — Bhavin Patel, Oct 21 '16 at 09:24
had you used ffmpeg and target Api to 22 ? or looked for another library instead of ffmpeg ? — Nooruddin Lakhani, Oct 21 '16 at 09:34
I have used ffmpeg with target Api 22. do you have idea about any other library ? — Bhavin Patel, Oct 21 '16 at 10:48
MediaCodec is another library but there is no better documentation available on internet and it require minimum Api level 18 .. Ref : http://bigflake.com/mediacodec/ — Nooruddin Lakhani, Oct 21 '16 at 11:32

The FFMPEG source code contains something called text-reloacations.

Starting Marshmallow, the Android OS does not allow linking to native code libraries that contain text-relocations. This means that Marshmallow can't be targeted (i.e. targetSdk=23 or up) if you link to videokit.so.

The FFMPEG ticket on this issue is concluded with someone suggestion that they won't fix the problem.

Google, on their side, won't fix it either.
