First, you use Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() to get at the root of external storage, rather than hard-wiring in /sdcard (which is the wrong value, anyway).
Second, you delete the READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission request, since there is no such permission. Third, you execute the correct code, as your error message refers to test.txt, whereas your code refers to test30fps.mp4.
