App crashes when selecting a video on Android

[cweise]

Version

Tell us which versions you are using:

• react-native-image-crop-picker v0.40.1
• react-native v0.72.5

Platform

• Android 13 (SDK 33)

Expected behaviour

• I should be able to select a video

Actual behaviour

• When selecting a video from the gallery the app crashes. It seems to have to do with the size of the video. If a video is selected that is about 2 minutes long, it works. If a video is about 10 minutes long, the app crashes.

Steps to reproduce

1. Open gallery
2. Select a video
3. App crashes

Try using the path instead of sourceURL

const file = Platform.select({
    ios: `file://${values.profilePhoto.path}`,
    android: values.profilePhoto.path,
 }),

You can use alternative like react-native-image -picker to get the large size video or images

I'm getting negative file size when larger than 1GB, the reason might be temporary data type allocated for media buffer, media file might exceeding the size limit of that variable and hence getting negative size and app is getting freeze/crash
