I agree with both Barry and Erik. DVD-5 is much more compatible than
DVD-9. This is why your studio puts out single layer and not dual
layer. They don't want unhappy returns.
My software recommendations to re-edit the disks onto single or dual
layer would be:
1) DvdShrink (free) for copying the DVD's to individual Hard Drive
folders.
2) Womble Video Wizard ($100) for editing the .vob files into .mpg
files, adding your own transitions, your own captions, trimming bits,
moving scenes, etc...
3) TmpgEnc Dvd Author ($50) to reauthor the .mpg files into a new DVD
Video_TS folder with your own menus. (NOT the PRO version, the original
one that many of us love)
4) DvdShrink if necessary to reduce the size of the .mpg to a single
layer disk and create the .iso file. TDA to create the .iso image.
5) ImgBurn (free) by Lightning!UK to burn the new DVD. IMB supports
dual layer.

A good digital editor for menus and buttons if you are inclined. I use
Paintshop Pro (I saw it advertised locally for $30 a couple of weeks
ago). Ken Maltby uses the freeware Gimp2.
All of the above are about as easy to use as it gets in doing this,
imho.
Cheers...
