As mentioned, MacTheRipper. However it won't get you from dual-layer to single-layer. You'll have to either buy one of the $30+ programs for reencoding, rip titles individually and reencode with ffmpeg or mencoder or something then figure out how to dvdauthor them back to a DVD (a real pain), or buy a $30 dual-layer capabale burner (probably the best option unless you're dealing with a laptop).
There's supposedly a free (as in beer) program that does resizing on Windows, and there's supposedly Free ones on Linux but I haven't got them to work yet either. I dont often recommend anything that involves spending money, cheapskate that I am, but I think the dual-layer capable burner is the way to go. You still need MacTheRipper (or something like it in linux - I'm sure there's something but I haven't looked into it) that will remove the encryption for you.
