I have a DVD hard copy, but no DVD player. Anyway, I found the DVD online and downloaded it, only problem is it’s a 7GB mkv. Is there a method to shrink it down by around 6GB?

    I personally use ffmpeg on the command line, but I think there are some apps that add an UI for easier use.

    Plex media server can also do some pre-set conversions. Either way you probably want to do that on a computer, it take a couple of hours to convert a movie even on my i9 CPU.

      Thank you.
