Use DVDshrink (freeware) then use Nero to burn to DVD. Download it from this site, see main page of dvdrhelp.com

Make yourself a new folder for your DVD on your system HD.

DS will rip your disc, save files to DVD5 size, and be sure to put them in the DVD folder.

Use NERO and make a DVD-VIDEO. Put the files from DS into the VIDEO_TS folder.

Burn.

Watch new DVD.

Guides for this on front page.

Dude, there's lots of guides. Do some reading, do a search, look in the DVD rip section on the left. There's lots of information and it's all right there if you want it.
