EDIT: Thank you so much everyone! There's so much help for me here, and I'll recommend anyone with similar question as me to read the comments

Basically title.

I have the DVDs and I have the hardware to burn them to my PC.

But the file size is too much. What software would be ideal to get the best quality with the lowest file size?

I'm going for file sizes per movie at around 2-3gb max.

Yeah, but x256 is a better choice regarding compression. And x265 has good software support as well.

Believe it or not, AV1 is better for compression across the board. https://subclassy.github.io/compression

The author uses ffmpeg as it's encoding library. Ffmpeg doesn't implement all x265 features. Have no idea about AV1, but it's generally not advisable to use ffmpeg as an x265 encoder.
