You can try Intel INDE on https://software.intel.com/en-us/intel-inde and Media Pack for Android which is a part of INDE, tutorials on https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-inde-media-pack-for-android- . It has a sample that shows how to use media pack to transcode=recompress video files.

You can set smaller resolution and\or bitrate to output to get smaller file in ComposerTranscodeCoreActivity.java

protected void setTranscodeParameters(MediaComposer mediaComposer) throws  IOException {

  mediaComposer.addSourceFile(mediaUri1);
  mediaComposer.setTargetFile(dstMediaPath);

  configureVideoEncoder(mediaComposer, videoWidthOut, videoHeightOut);
  configureAudioEncoder(mediaComposer);
}

protected void transcode() throws Exception {

  factory = new AndroidMediaObjectFactory(getApplicationContext());
  mediaComposer = new MediaComposer(factory, progressListener);
  setTranscodeParameters(mediaComposer);
  mediaComposer.start();
}

I had the same problem, so...I took the video compression code from the Telegram for android source code and created a sample project for that, here it is:

Isn't there a library that's not on an open source license? GPL is way too much to the left – Arcantos May 25 '17 at 04:46

Hi @Johndahat, this project is a little bit out-dated. – Jorge E. Hernández Aug 04 '20 at 17:28
Sir can you suggest me another library or code. – John dahat Aug 05 '20 at 14:20
I haven't worked with video compression libraries recently. This is the one I think could work for you: https://github.com/tanersener/mobile-ffmpeg – Jorge E. Hernández Aug 05 '20 at 20:28
