This should get it down to 3 discs with only removing the intros to the other languages. I may recode some of the files as well to see what can be done.

There is only 136 MB of data in the levelpacks directory for french(the only non-english language in there it seems) so there's not much that can be done in there.
Upping the diskslicksize to 1550000000 will almost fill a DVD5 ( 4.7GB ). whats the size of your FMV folder. ( recompressed / downsize all videos to 60% ends up at ~850mb )

peter the levelpacks folder (presently at 16.6GB ) can be compressed before/during the inno setup using freearc and it will take them down to 3.76GB.
Just then need to add the unpacking procedure at the end of installation. Which would in effect take a 4DVD5 repack down to a 2xDVD5 repack.
