The “Widescreen” thingy has a number of pitfalls and you have added another.
1. Widescreen begins with the shoot. A SD camera (or HDV in DV-Widescreen mode}. The PAR for PAL is 1.422.
2. Edit in a SD Widescreen Project Preset.
3. Export as Widescreen.You did #3 right, but not 1 and 2.
#3 inserts a tag into the video that “some” DVD players catch and adjust the playback accordingly. Others require the viewer to select Widescreen using the remote.
Best bet is to import your HDV footage into a 4:3 DV project, scale it down to fit on the screen and encode as 4:3. The quality wont be quite as good as if shot in SD and the render times will be long.
Better bet is to burn it to a Blu-ray and enjoy HD on a nice TV.

Go back to Playback Settings and reset both “External Device” settings to DV 29.97i (720 x 480) even though they currently show this. Experiment with turning the camera on before launching Premiere and after.

[David McGuire] “and now I only get one channel when I capture video”
Does the waveform in the timeline show one channel or two? Does the Master Audio Meter display one or two channels?

Sound can only go to one of the two…they are not in sync. To export your movie to tape you need to choose External Device Audio and NOT Desktop Audio.
PLayback Settings are available from the Output button on the lower right corner of the Program Window. -
Where the sound is played (PC speakers or external DV device) is a choice in Playback Settings.

Also turn off Anti Alias in PS.

Check out this thread on the Adobe forum. They are talking one hour to render one minute of HDV to SD and without a convoluted workaround the results are poor. Downconverting in the camera on capture will speed this up back to “normal”, but the resized fields look poor. Shoot in SD.

Make sure you have only one input and one output port enabled in;
