I try to draw a text on a video using FFMpeg but I have the error:

My problem is that I can not use the option 'drawtext'. When I don't use the option 'drawtext' it's work. I do not know which syntax I should use. I tried a lot of possibilities without success. I use this library: http://writingminds.github.io/ffmpeg-android-java/
Can you help me?
First You need to specify the FONTCONFIG_FILE to be used in your command. FFMpeg depends on this file to locate fonts and render you text.
Your command will look something like this.
You can find a sample configuration file for android and add it to your project and refer to it.
Here is a sample configuration file:
If you need to access fonts stored in another folder (other than system/fonts) you must add your folder to the configuration file.
