You'll need a software tool called a Video Converter, like:
Xilisoft Video Converter: Convert AVI MPEG video, MKV, WMV to MPEG converter, Convert AVI files to iPod

Some DVD ripping software has some of this capability already built in:
Xilisoft DVD Ripper Platinum 5: DVD rip software, rip DVD perfectly

Google search on those terms and you'll find many options, go with one that fits into your budget.

You've used this software to shrink a DVD down to a small viewable movie file on your computer? I've read through the docs and can't find anything saying it does that, it shrinks big movies down to fit on a a single DVD, but that's still 4.7gigs.

This gentleman is looking for a program to create video files of a DVD less than 1 gigabyte total that are then viewed from the hard drive.

Are you sure that program does this?

Ah, good point, the small file size. Perhaps he should have a look at this:
