Odd. I recommend trying “HD Anamorphic”, just to see what happens. Be alert for image distortions.
If that works, then you have your answer. If not, I would re-check then double-check your export settings from FCP.

[David Barry] “Use the assets Pixel aspect ratio: SD NTSC Widescreen (1.2)”
That is the wrong interpretation.
Try setting the PAR to square pixels and let us know what happens.

Did you check File>Interpret Footage and verify that Encore is seeing the file as 16:9? I think for full-frame HD it is 1920×1080 with a PAR of 1.0.

Add about a gigabyte of random files to the DVD-ROM section of the Build panel.

[George Cox] “If I set the Overrides, to return to the Main Menu, I am back to the same problem.”
Exactly. Don’t use overrides. Use Chapter Playlists and Chapter End Actions instead.
If each of your “chapters” are in separate timelines, then use a standard playlist for the Play All function.
Do not ever use overrides unless you know exactly what they do, how they can possibly affect your disc navigation and then only if you are absolutely certain the other playlist options can’t accomplish the required navigation.
In other words, the answer to the question “When should I use Overrides?” comes very close to “Never.” 🙂

Please check each and every asset and object in your project again. Your symptoms are textbook for problems that occur when overrides are used incorrectly and/or unnecessarily.

Do you have any overrides set anywhere in the project?

CS3 and earlier versions do not have that capability – duplicate menus must be used.
En CS4 does have a new menu loop point feature where you choose the point at which you want the menu to start playing after it loops.

You have to use a program like Premiere Pro or After Effects to resize the small video inside of a full-sized DVD frame. Then export the modified video from your editing program and use that as the menu background in Encore.
