No videos downloaded by DownloadtoASD were found

Using DownloadtoASD to download the video, after downloading, click on the download report and it looks very good
But the problem is I want to get it to post on social media but can't find it.

Is there a way to put it in the same folder as other videos?

Copy or move it from the ASD to one of the Shared folders (like /Movies, ...) using the File component or better TaifunFile / FileTools extension to avoid storage permissions on Android 11+.

Alternatively use the web component to download the file directly into shared storage

See this example App Inventor Tutorials and Examples: File Download | Pura Vida Apps

and don't forget to set the response filename before downloading

ResponseFileName

Specifies the name of the file where the response should be saved. If SaveResponse is true and ResponseFileName is empty, then a new file name will be generated.

With the same structure, I successfully move the photo, but the video fails.
Can you help me where I went wrong

It seems that a (slash) / is missing after the ASD:
