DVDShrink is your best friend

Remember that if the DVD is recent (last year or so) it might have new protections in it that aren't supported by DVDShrink. To bypass them, also install AnyDVD

Hum, you need to re-author the entire DVD. Still try DVDShrink, but in Authoring mode.

If that doesn't work, you need to make it again a DVD9 (an iso should be good enough) and then shrink that iso with DVDShrink in a DVD5

If they have 2ch audio as well (be careful as some of the time the 2ch stuff is another language or directors commentary) DVDShrink will happily drop it as raulpica says.

It is rather out of date but http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=84887 is nice guide to starting to redo audio to lower channels without going to extremes.

Also ripit4me (it got taken out but it is still fairly widely available) should still work for most structure based protection and DVD Fab (simple version is freeware) should work for the slightly newer ones that ripit4me struggles with: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/DVDFab_Decrypter.htm
