Can DVDA shrink the video?

Hi everybody,
I rendered out a wedding movie 5.55 GB and now I want to try to prepare it in DVD Architect so that to fit a single DVDisc 4.7GB. So, my question is: can Sony DVD Architect make a self calculation/preparing of a project, so that to let any bigger size fit a 4.7GB DVDisc? And how?
I have heard about software programs which can shrink a video so that to be able to burn it in a disc, no matter if the sourse video is bigger than the disc size, but I really want to know if it is possible with DVD Architect.
 
File>Optimize DVD>Fit to Disc (lower left corner)

HOWEVER, if you're going to do that -- let DVD Architect fit it for you -- you'll be better off rendering from Vegas as DV (under .avi) and THEN have DVD Architect fit it to the disc. That way, it's not recompressing MPEG-2 and you'll have less quality loss.
