A movie can be compressed to MPEG4, then it fits on regular CD.

You need to rip the DVD video to your HD, convert to MPEG and then compress it in a Pocket PC friendly format (normally MPG at low bitrate or WMA). There is a great free MPEG encoder called Tsunami, and there are quite a number of DVD ripping/decryption programs.
Be aware that in doing this, you will be in violation of the DMCA.

If you don't find the program mentioned in that thread to work.. "Pocket Divx" is your best bet. GREAT program, Plays movies EXCELLENT, VERY fast. I was getting solid 28 fps playback at 320 kbps on a Dell Axim X3i.
Rip the DVD to MPEG. Use "Virtual Dub" (search google) to compress the movie. If you can use google, you'll be able to find a tutorial for virtual dub, but its really easy.
I use the latest divx codec, with audio at 32kbps and video resolution at either 320x240 | 320kbps for tv shows, or 240x180 | 240kbps for movies (to save space).
Better than windows media player, alot less buggy.
