App crashes when taking video

Hey guys I've been getting the null pointer exception a few others have been getting when trying to take a video and then send it. The app crashes when I try to send a video I took, but it sends everything else. From what I can tell my code looks identical to the project file. I logged the code and right before I start the activity the video Uri attached to the intent is there, but when I retrieve it from recipients activity it's null. As for now i'm chalking it up to a compatibility issue but, if anyone has any suggestions fling them my way.
