Why are you encoding mpeg1? For DVD or something? Isn't MPEG2 the updated version of that (sorry,I really have no clue about DVD authoring)

I looked it up anyway cause I was interested and found this

might help lol

if you're distributing on the web, keep a 16:9 aspect ratio such as 640x360,1280x720 etc and 1.00000, but I'd use a different thing for that like sony avc mpeg4

Don't know why there isn't an edit button, just looked at the link I posted that's for some 3D program opps lol but anyway

DV NTSC: 720x480, pixel aspect ratio 0.9:1, render from cinema @ 30fps
DV NTSC widescreen: 720x480, pixel aspect ratio 1.2:1, render from cinema @ 30fps

Those two I guess would be for none widescreen and widescreen, but use 29.970 for DVD and check what your original footage is first, what the aspect ratios are the framerate and pixel aspect ratio is

or maybe I shouldn't give advice about stuff I don't know lol embarassed now im prob completely wrong logging off these froumns
