Exporting in 16 x 9 with Premiere 1.5
I’m trying to export to DVD in Adobe Premiere 1.5, but the DVD won’t hold the aspect ratio at 16×9 when played on a TV. Any clues?

What kind of TV SD or WS, I assume WS, whats it doing, pillar boxing?

I produced a feature-length movie using Premiere 1.5 in 16×9 without any trouble. Where I had trouble was with the DVD authoring software. Adobe Encore 1.5 was perfect; I’d tried using some other DVD packages and would wind up with 16:9 squished to 4:3.
What software are you encoding the DVD with?

I was using Encore 1.5, I’ve got 2 now but haven’t used it yet, I’ve done a bunch simple projects in Ppro 2 where I could just use its DVD templates and photoshop.

I scratched my head over this same issue just a few weeks ago. To further complicate things, the authored DVD (Encore) looked 16×9 on the PC but full screen on my TV. Turned out, I had my Philips DVD player set wrong…

naw, it’s just expaning to fill the 4:3, so the sides get cut off. It’s a normal (4:3) TV.

I’m using just the Adobe Premiere program to export to DVD. I’ll try exporting as MPEG2 then burning it to DVD. More soon.

Check the player’s settings. They should be set to 4:3 Letterbox.
