If they are running a projector off a PC or something, then I suppose it doesn't matter and square pixels is fine, but thought I'd just mention it. Better safe than sorry

Regarding MPEG-2: This probably won't help, but I'll throw it out there just in case. The little cheapie app VisualHub makes MPEG-2 files. Could you export out of Final Cut using Quicktime Conversion (uncompressed format of your choice) and then convert with VisualHub? Would the quality be acceptable?
