You are asking for a freeware program that makes this Trivial to do, and there just ain't none, sorry! DVDs are basically specially-constructed video files (VOBs), with instructions to players(IFOs) for how to play them.

So you can't muck with the videos without also making sure the instructions still work, and vice-versa.

The simplest way to avoid warnings & such is to use DVD Shrink and backup in Re-Author mode w/only the movie and soundtracks/subtitles you want. But if you want to retain the complete menu structure yet avoid certain elements of the complete DVD then you will have to learn PgcEdit or IfoEdit or one of the other (all pretty complex) tools, along with some of the terminology involved.
