Hi,

It shouldn't be that big, you're probably building with debug symbols, you can strip them using the strip tool.

I'm assuming you're building for Android? In that case, you can select only the plugins you are using.

Selection or removing of unnecessary plugins not helping me much here lib
file size remains that much bigger only. Yes I am builing it on android.

For you reference here is my Android.mk file

-------------------------------------------
LOCAL_PATH := $(call my-dir)

include $(CLEAR_VARS)

LOCAL_MODULE    := LiveStream
LOCAL_SRC_FILES := LiveStream.c LS.cpp

include $(BUILD_SHARED_LIBRARY)

#Update your PC path of the folder gstreamer_extracted

GSTREAMER_ROOT_ANDROID:= /home/Purva/gstreamer-1.0-android-universal-1.18.3

ifndef GSTREAMER_ROOT_ANDROID
$(error GSTREAMER_ROOT_ANDROID is not defined!)
endif

ifeq ($(TARGET_ARCH_ABI),armeabi)
GSTREAMER_ROOT        := $(GSTREAMER_ROOT_ANDROID)/arm

else
$(error Target arch ABI not supported: $(TARGET_ARCH_ABI))
endif

GSTREAMER_NDK_BUILD_PATH  := $(GSTREAMER_ROOT)/share/gst-android/ndk-build/
include $(GSTREAMER_NDK_BUILD_PATH)/plugins.mk

Already tried removing plugins but so file size remains same.

Actual file size is 144 MB after release build and enabling manify and
shirinking resources flag my so file contains 70 MB. Any guidance about
streapping tool?
Please note that I am using gstreamer lib as a library project so I am not
able to perform shrinking operation as it's library project I can add
shirinking flag in main project ony. And as it's  library project It's
unable to reduce my so files more.
I am performing ndk build operation while generating so files.
