ios AVAssetWriter output invalid video format

Question

This code works for creating video from images. AVAssetWritter work fine without error and export output video - (.mov). But it fail in some case of image size. 120 x 160 - fail 180 x 640 , 240 x 320, 160 x 213.333, 96 x 128 - pass

P/s: Test on iPod 4th ios 5.1

This is screenshot http://postimg.org/image/gih1ofvbn/ of fail video for size 120 x 160, please help me solve this issue. Or any recommend for other video encoder library will be welcome. Thanks

This is my code

- (void) writeImagesAsMovie:(NSArray *)images withDelaySec:(float)delaySec toPath:(NSString*)path   {
//delete file
NSFileManager *fileMgr = [[NSFileManager alloc] init];
NSError *error2;
if ([fileMgr removeItemAtPath:path error:&error2] != YES)
    NSLog(@"Unable to delete file: %@", [error2 localizedDescription]);


UIImage *first = [images objectAtIndex:0];


CGSize frameSize = first.size;
NSLog(@"__create video: %f %f", frameSize.width, frameSize.height);

NSError *error = nil;
AVAssetWriter *videoWriter = [[AVAssetWriter alloc] initWithURL:
                              [NSURL fileURLWithPath:path] fileType:AVFileTypeQuickTimeMovie
                                                          error:&error];

if(error) {
    NSLog(@"error creating AssetWriter: %@",[error description]);
}

int numPixels = frameSize.width * frameSize.height;
int bitsPerSecond;
float bitsPerPixel;
// Assume that lower-than-SD resolutions are intended for streaming, and use a lower bitrate
if ( numPixels < (640 * 480) )
    bitsPerPixel = 4.05; // This bitrate matches the quality produced by AVCaptureSessionPresetMedium or Low.
else
    bitsPerPixel = 11.4; // This bitrate matches the quality produced by AVCaptureSessionPresetHigh.

bitsPerSecond = numPixels * bitsPerPixel;

The width of the video should be divisible by 16.
