        content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.MIME_TYPE, "video/mp4");
        content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA, path);
        ContentResolver resolver = getActivity().getContentResolver();
        Uri uri1 =  Uri.fromFile(new File(path));

so,if anyone face this type of problem try this code.

I'm sure It's also works perfect for you.

ContentValues content = new ContentValues(4);

System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000);
content.put(Video.Media.MIME_TYPE, "video/mp4");
content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA, "path_of_video");
ContentResolver resolver = getBaseContext().getContentResolver();
Uri uri = resolver.insert(MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, content);

Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"Title_text");
//sharingIntent.setType("video/*");
//File newFile = new File(path_var);
sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,uri);

After several hours of trying to find out how to make it work for uploading and sharing video on facebook, youtube, instagram and whatsapp. this is the code that worked for me. Uploading recorded video from your application to social media applications

ContentValues content = new ContentValues(4);
            content.put(Video.VideoColumns.DATE_ADDED,
            System.currentTimeMillis() / 1000);
            content.put(Video.Media.MIME_TYPE, "video/mp4");
            content.put(MediaStore.Video.Media.DATA, "your_path_to_video");
            ContentResolver resolver = getBaseContext().getContentResolver();
            Uri uri = resolver.insert(MediaStore.Video.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI, content);

            Intent sharingIntent = new Intent(android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
            sharingIntent.setType("video/*");
            sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT,"Title");
            sharingIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM,uri);
            startActivity(Intent.createChooser(sharingIntent,"share:"));
