first off DVD9 are not cheap everywhere in the world, trying to delete MP files, extra languages etc some games its possible, but not all. As far as recompress video or stronger compression, not worth the time. I tried with one set of files for a single dvd & using precomp it ran for almost 18HRs one that one set
in the end it only reduced by few hundred MB so wasn't worth the time. Who wants to install a game that takes 3-4 hours to install

You want DVD9 then take dvd5 lists and split them up so then everything fits on DVD9.
