Hey Eddie and Mike,
My AVI clips that were created from Premier's capture on "DV Capture" setting, are 720 x 480. I'm not sure what you mean by project resolution, but in my project settings, its got for frame size 1920 x 1080 -- fields uneditable.

Please keep in mind that all my other videos, after burned to DVD, had the picture just fine, so I don't think my system specs or any possibly interfering software will be a factor. I really think there's a setting I'm overlooking.
As for how I'm playing the DVD: I'm playing it from my PC. As a reminder, the DVD preview plays the picture just fine.

Here are my export settings for output:

Another strange thing to me is that the preview window on the left pane only partially shows the picture. Maybe you guys can see a mistake in one of my settings?
Thanks very much guys.
