I find that tmpgenc allows you to vary the bitrate, and thus control the final filesize.

If you have the ripped DVD files in a folder, TMPGENC will work.
For best results (but much slower), I use 2-pass, with the AVERAGE bitrate set, so it fits on 1 DVD-R, and the bottom bitrate set to 2000 and the top to 7000.
Let me know if you need more clarification.

First when Ripping it leave Angle1 on only.

Using IfOedit, you could strip out audio/subtitles you do not need.

Maybe you could get it down to 4.6GB

You don't need to do every file separately, nor do you have to strip out stuff, if you RIP the DVD with CLAD.

CLAD has its own demuxing tool (DVD2AVI) built in, and will create a file which can be processed by TMPGENC, which in turn will allow you to regulate the output size.

Good luck
