This is what I tried
>>>>First thing you need to know is that it IS possible to strip out EVERYTHING using IFOEditor (except for 1 video and 1 audio)and still end up with a file that is too big for direct copying. Remember, anything over 4.36GB cannot be burned directly to a 4.7GB DVD+R without first shrinking(re-encoding) the file.
First things first...
Since you already have ALL IFO, BUP, VOB files for the entire movie ripped to your hard drive, let's start from there. first, you must determine which VTS your movie is in. This is done simply by opening your VIDEO_TS folder, click on view, then details, so that you can see the sizes of all your files. Your movie is the largest one and will look something like this:

VTS_03_0.VOB 178,390 KB
VTS_03_1.VOB 1,048,544 KB
VTS_03_2.VOB 1,048,544 KB
VTS_03_3.VOB 1,048,544 KB
VTS_03_4.VOB 1,048,544 KB

This example shows this movie is in VTS_03. Now open IFOEdit and click open in the lower left corner. Brouse to find your VIDEO_TS folder and open the VTS for your movie(in my example it would be VTS_03_0). The bottom half of the screen is the description and will tell you everything that is in your movie(and possibly other things like the menu). Click anywhere in the descriptions box and scroll through looking for various program chains(for example, PGC_1). The largest(or longest) will be the movie. The first line of the movie program chain will tell which VOB-IDs it uses. Remember these. Next, click the VOB Extras button at the bottom of the screen. Now you will want to check the boxes: strip stream, strip VOB, correct VOB, correct IFO, and correct new. Re-mux, rebuild, and split should not be checked. Everything in the "VOB file options" box should be checked. Select a destination directory folder to store the new files(call it anything, it will be changed later). Then, press OK. Here is where you check what you want to keep. I only keep 1 dolby 6ch audio and no subpictures(subtitles). Click strip-it. Now for the video. Here you need to keep the VOB-IDs for your movie that you remembered from earlier. Click strip-it again and wait until it finishes(about 20 min.). Now close IFOEdit and reopen it. Open the NEW folder and click Get VTS Sectors. The only thing left to do is see if your new folder size is under 4.36GB. If it is, rename your new folder to VIDEO_TS and burn THE ENTIRE FOLDER to your DVD+R.<<<<
