Its QT that does not hold the par.
Stick to dv-avi.

Edit: most players such as WMP, VLC, Adobe Media Player hold their PAR just fine.
Why use mov on a pc.

Did you set your playback setting for external device correct?

This is the green bug.
Pro 1.5 does not handle large images very, they turn green.
Reduce the size to project size. When zooming/panning use twice the project size.

That was quick. 🙂

Premiere can be difficult sometimes. During capture the preview stays black. Be sure the project is set to hdv and the camera and the tape set to the first visual frame. Premiere needs a timecode to capture.
A very handy capture tool is HDV Split. This will give you preview and scene detection. Try that, much easier.

Leave your 4:3 footage as it is, making it widescreen gives you qualityloss.
You can do a little magic: letterbox.
Go to title/new title/based on template.
Twirle down Mattes and choose Letterbox Matte. Hit OK. Close Titler.
Put this title in a superimposed track and strech it over all the footage.
Now if the footage does not fit the window very nice you can adjust the horizonal position with Motion in the Effect Controls.

Maybee you could tell us what camera you are using and what your project settings and export settings are.

There’s a template in the titler for widescreen bars.

Quicktime is a player Premiere is not.
Does your pc have enough horsepower to deal with these kind of files?
