Im also no expert in this field, but let me still try to help, until you get info from someone who knows these things in detail. If you are trying to save video files and save as much space ass posible, you could rar - archive them (or some other archiving format - as Zip for windows, or Tar for Linux. If you want to transfer - convert video that you already have in one format to another smaller format, you can donwload any of the free converters youll find on the web (and do a convert from .avi to .(divx)mpeg, or from dvd - .vob to .avi, .mkv to .avi ...). Like i said, i am no expert, but still, i think that getting a converter - archiver that will compress a video file from 100% to 10%, as you asked, is hard to do? (it is possible but the loss of quality will be extream.) Still, you can not reduce so extreamly, but split one video file to numerous smaller files so its easyer to send them via mail or web, like dvd files for one movie - vts_1.vob, vts_2.vob....). It would be difficult to send a file thats 4,7Gb large over email. But if you split it into smaller parts that are 15Mb large, its then possible. If you record your video with a video-cam, you should probably change the recording video format settings to get smaller size video files (resolution, format, compression...).
