DVD Shrink gives you the option to remove extra languages and subtitles, and also allows you to compress the vob/ifo/bup files in order to "scale down" to the size disc that you want (i.e. 4.7 GB).

That said, I did so and remastered the dvd and burned it. I watched the copy, and it looks "ok...." I'd like to see a little improvement on the quality, so I checked to see how much difference space-wise it would make to remove the extra languages/subtitles. It only comes out to about 400 MB. Does anyone know if that would be considered a "noticeable" difference (the scaling ratio changes from 52.4% to 58.3%)?
