    Nobody here can tell you with certainty what delivery codec you need. For that you need to contact the station you’re delivering to. As for the resolutions, that’s easy.
    Create your main composition as PAL D1/DV Widescreen. Render to the proper codec.
    Now create a PAL D1/DV (not widescreen) comp, and drop your widescreen comp into that one, and scale it down to 64%. Render to delivery codec.

    Sorry, I didn’t notice in your post that your delivery requirement was for PAL.
    I updated my post with the correct specs.
