high profile mpeg2 from tricaster to dvd. premiere settings?
I am editing in adobe premiere cs4 and outputting to DVD via encore and having trouble with the quality. What I really need is some advice on what project settings to use to take a file from that was recoreded on the tricaster studio using the “studio mpeg” and get that out to a dvd. I am able to do this just fine when I edit from DV tape. I also “think” there is something screwy with the tricaster as premiere reads the file with a par of something 1.15 instead of 1.212 and the image is a few pixes shy of filling the heigth and has nasty rough edges. So far the resulting dvd has a strange blurring or ghosting effect and is oddly pixelated. And its entirely possible that I am not even describing it correctly.
Thanks for you time!

Are you using “interpret footage” to correct the PAR of the clips before you put them on the timeline?

No not before. I did after and noticed that it solved the width issue. Acording to Newtek the “High profile” mpeg 2 is 422 and so I am unsure how to setup premiere. I had originaly used DV-widescreen ntsc. But isnt that 420… so dont I immediately loose color info? I need to do some simple edits and trow a credit roll then send to encore for a sd dvd with menues. So far results have been strobing/ghosting on movement and it looks about like a webcam instead of the 3 cannon xha1’s we used to shoot with.
Thank you for any other tips or advide.
