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 would recommend FFShare, it is free and open source, but not available on google play store.

With h.265 and 480p, you should be able to shrink the video file by quite a lot. You need to set these settings first before selecting a file.
