What you're probably seeing is the effect of the pixel aspect ratio scaling. Turn that off in the viewer (the button that looks like a square with a double-headed arrow) and your footage should be pin sharp again.

This is a low-quality scaling to give you an idea what your footage will look like when viewed on an appropriate monitor. It's not what it will look like when rendered.

Cheers,
Ben
