Description

MediaFile.getFormatData result data was empty (filled with default "0" values) for all types of capture: image, video & audio.

Problem encountered on Android & iOS.

I solved this by changing the url passed to native code from localURL to fullPath.

Tested with two different Android phones (5.1 & 4.4) & one iPhone 5 (iOS 9).
The fix works!
