What I would recommend is to use dvdshrink to backup your vob's into an ISO. Next use the free fairuse wizard lite to convert that ISO into an xvid. with fairuse wizard the default size of the finished video is always going to be 700mb.

With total video converter, to get a reduce size file you are going to have to use a bitrate calculater and adjust the audio and video bitrate so you get the desired size you want.

Another thing you can do is use the free avidemux to further reduce your 1.5gb xvid to a lower size. You can configure the xvid encoder so it can give you a fixed sized.

Don't bother. Just do it right the first time.
