I've imported DVDs with handbrake, can i make them smaller?

[macamatic]

Hi everyone

I've imported tons of DVDs using handbrake at 480x240 resolution with an average bitrate of 960kbps, but it doesn't take much to fill the 16GB iPhone.

Can I compress the files further without having to re-import?

Thank you.

Of course. I do it all the time for my iPhone. I use Visualhub and/or Elgato's Turbo 264. Takes longer than it does to run a quick iPhone mp4 from the ts folder when you first rip your dvd, but it still works.
