Tried using react-native-video-processing by Shahen:

Below is the code:

pressVideo(source) {
    const options = {
        width: 800,
        height: 800,
        bitrateMultiplier: 3,
        saveToCameraRoll: true, 
        saveWithCurrentDate: true, 
        removeAudio: true 
    };

    ProcessingManagerpress(source, options)
        .then(data => {
            console.log(data);
            this.setState({ base64String: data });
        })
        .catch(console.warn);
}

but it gives error in Android device.

Have a try on the following code to successfully press videos in react-native. My pressing result => 7.5mb into 1.48mb. This mand require full-gpl package

import { Platform } from 'react-native';
import {RNFFmpeg} from "react-native-ffmpeg"
import RNFS from 'react-native-fs';

function processVideo(videoUrl, callback) {
  const finalVideo = `${RNFS.CachesDirectoryPath}/audioVideoFinal.mp4`;

  cacheResourcePath(videoUrl).then((rVideoUrl) => {
   const str_cmd = `-y -i ${rVideoUrl} -c:v libx264 -crf 28 -preset ultrafast  ${finalVideo}`;
   
    RNFFmpeg.execute(
      str_cmd,
    ).then((result) => {
      if (result === 0) {
        RNFS.unlink(rVideoUrl);

        callback({
          videoPath:
            Platform.OS === 'android' ? 'file://' + finalVideo : finalVideo,
        });
      }
    });
  });
};

async function cacheResourcePath(sourcePath) {
  const uriComponents = sourcePath.split('/');
  const fileNameAndExtension = uriComponents[uriComponents.length - 1].replaceAll(' ','');

  const destPath = `${RNFS.CachesDirectoryPath}/${fileNameAndExtension}`;

  await RNFS.copyFile(sourcePath, destPath);
  return destPath;
}

Use rn-fetch-blob for android to convert the path first as the URI you get is temporary in the case of android and can't be found in the directory,

const res = await RNFetchBlob.fs.stat(SOURCE_URI);
src = "file://" + res.path;

ProcessingManager.press(src, options)
    .then(data => {
        console.log(data);
        this.setState({ base64String: data });
    })
    .catch(console.warn);

This will resolve the path issue.
