You will need authoring software (such as Encore); this is distinct from DVD-burning software. DVD-video is a very specific construct of files; though you do need to start with MPEG-2 video.
You might want to take a look at the DVD Primer here:

I suppose I was not clear: Your “local media outlet” should be the ones providing the specs. They are the people who know what they use for playback.

They should be telling you which formats are acceptable… otherwise you risk multiple (re)compression and serious loss of quality.

One thing to check: 30 FPS is not the same as 29.97 FPS. For NTSC (North America) video you want 20.97. The frame rate difference could certainly lead to “jumpy” encoding.

Are you by any chance using the “Reduce Noise” filter as part of the output settings? That’s a render-killer.

[Chad Duncan] “During capture it appeared on screen so I’m sure this data was copied over”
Ah, but appeared on which screen? The video monitor or the Premiere capture window? If it was embedded in the video, you should of course be seeing it in the video. Frequently, this data is an overlay that is generated by the camera and ovelayed on the monitor out, but not embedded in the video.
A possible workaround is to use the Time Code effect to overlay timecode on your captured video. You will likely need to manually adjust the offset (start) time on a per-clip basis.

It sounds like you need more details from the broadcaster; I suspect they are broadcasting standard def. See if the have a preference (digiBeta, BetaSP, etc.). Were I doing a similar project, I believe I would work in HD and just keep things safe for a center-crop 4:3. Then crop the edges and output a 4:3 SD master for the broadcaster. That way you still have a HD master should you need one.

Try a test with (QuickTime) PNG compression. Lossless, but usually smaller file size than the Animation codec.

All HD video is 16:9, as far as I know. How are they requesting 4:3? Perhaps they want everything to be center-cut safe for 4:3 broadcast?
