Solution

I got solution so I answered here, issue is not of flutter_ffmpeg, issue is caused because app had not permission to write in external storage to resolve this add "MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" in mainfest.xml file and set output path is
File(‘storage/emulated/0/my_folder/o.mp4’).path , and everything works fine.

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" /> 

String outputPath = File('storage/emulated/0/my_folder/o.mp4').path;
