You can rotate the video 180′ (Motion) and flip it horizontally (Horizontal flip) as a workaround in Premiere. -

You audio is mono and will go only in an mono audio track. By default track 4 is a mono track. You can add just another mono track or reorder your tracks.

There is no mystery to the file size of compressed video. You can compress to any size you want by doing a little math. H264 is a good codec.
75 minutes = 4500 seconds
1 GB divided by 4500 = 222 kilobytes per second
222 kBps times 8 bits to the byte= 1760 kilobits per second combined video/audio bitrate.
Resolution should be 50% (480×360)
Choose 2 pass vbr video bitrate =1500 kbps
Audio bitrate (AAC)= 192 kbps. -
File>Adobe Dynamic Link>Send to Encore

Possible field order reversal during Encore’s encoding. DV is lower field first, but Mpeg can be either, just hopefully the same as the original video. If it is not,I doubt there is much you can do without the original video.
Try changing the field order in Encore to the opposite of your first attempt. -
On the PC side in SD DV mode, Premiere cannot truly use the second monitor expect to extend Premiere’s GUI. The settings you reference are for firewire output of the program window which can be displayed on a third monitor/TV.
That said, you could extend Premiere’s GUI to your second monitor and then hover your mouse over the Program window and press the Tildie key to expand playback to full screen.

The problem began with the camera operator failing to frame the shot so as not to have anything important near the edge of the screen. Most TVs will cut off at least 5% of resolution.
Get a new cameraman. -
I suspect you have ” Default Scale to frame size” selected in Preferences. This creates a small version of your image in Media Cache..another generational degradation of the original image. Then resizing that (motion effects) adds yet another generational loss.
Best bet is to turn off “Default Scale to frame size”, import the original 6 or 8 MP images and scale them down to fit.
The problem with that is the bounding box around an 8 MP image in the Program window is 10 times the size of the window so you will need to guess at a scale value and enter that into the Effects Controls pallet.One more thing that drives me bananas is the discussion of DPI in video. DPI refers to the paper world only (scanning and printing) and changing DPI has no effect on a computer screen or TV.

Do not see any changes to the capture window, What you need is ScenalyzerLive…it has a Start-Stop timer.
