First I should say that I don’t own an HV20.
Mpeg is the wrapping, it contain both video and audio. Premiere extracts these files so that you can edit the audio separately. The video part has the .m2k extension.
HDV is stored as 1440×1080. (The equivalent of 1920×1080 in square pixels)
HDV 720P is in square pixels, however HDV 1080 has a ratio of 1.33.
You have to make sure that you select an HDV project and if you right click on the footage and choose interpret it should show a PAR of 1.33
Now sure how to are exporting to DVD. Make sure it is Widescreen at a PAR of 1.2 / 720×480.
If you are shooting 24p, you have to edit AND export as 24P, no way around that. If you want to edit in 30P you’ll have to convert the footage to 30P before import, which I wouldn’t recommend at this point.
