You need to do a bit budget first. Here's a good calculator:

For 5 hours you're look at a avg bitrate of 3.5
For 4 hours you're look at a avg bitrate of 4.0

These are both DVD-9

Compressor doesn't do a very good job at these bitrates so I'd seriously look at using another encoder like Bitvice or Cinemacraft MP plug-in for the Mac
