Is there a way to shrink a video file to fit it onto a cd-rw

[confusednoob316]

I have a video file that is to big to fit onto a cd-rw and I was wondering if there was a way to compress it to fit on the disk. I wanted it to play on my dvd player. I already checked to see if my dvd player would play a disk like this and it does. I accedentally saved a portion of the video file to the disk and when I tried it in my dvd player it worked. The dvd player opened up the mp3 menu and the file was in mpeg 2 when I played it, it had no sound but the picture quality was great. I can't use dvd shrink because it is not a dvd file can someone please try to help me with these problems.
