Try getting a copy of DVDShrink which is freely available on the web if you search. This allows you to trim off things like the credits and unnecessary footage.

DVDShrink is free. Try going here:

http://www.videohelp.com

where you'll find loads of guides from beginners level up, and links to software. Don't be put off by the (IMO) cluttered main page - it's a goldmine of information.

some dvd manufacturers call a gigabyte 1000 megabytes when it is really 1024 megabytes.  This is where the missing megabytes are going.
