Answer 1

My solution (example with a random mp4 video file):

1. Set a file to device:

   adb push /home/myuser/myVideoFile.mp4 /storage/emulated/legacy/
   

2. Get a file from device:

   adb pull /storage/emulated/legacy/myVideoFile.mp4 
   

For retrieve the path in the code:

String myFilePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/myVideoFile.mp4";

This is all. This solution doesn't give permission problems and it works fine.

Last point: I wanted to change the video metadata information. If you want to write into your device you should change the permission in the AndroidManifest.xml. Add this line:
