OK, so I burnt off a disc, and again i got the aliasing problem, but brought it to other machines and it worked fine – in terms of the aliasing problem, so I guess theres something quirky going on with my media player. Incidentally, PowerDVD couldnt play it due to insuffient decoders… but it did play fine on a DVD player/TV combo…
The other news is that the menu is slightly blurred when playing it on a computer, even when its at 1:1 res – though crsip in the preview. If anyone knows what that is, hit me up!
But mainly Im happy that the aliasing thing has been resolved, I can live with the blur – just about..

– When you view the DVD, are you playing it on the computer or a set-top player? If on the computer, are you maximizing the window (bad) or viewing at the native resolution (good)?
Computer – and leaving the window un-scaled
– You said “the image is heavily aliased. particularly noticable on menus where theres text.” Are you referring to the text highlights? That’s typical for DVD, the highlights can’t be anti-aliased. Please clarify what exactly is the problem.
No, theres no text highlights. The reason its noticable on text is because theres more squigley detail in the text to make the aliasing more prominent – the test is quite chunky.
The transcodes look perfect…
After a bit of hunting around, it looks like it may have something to do with interlacing, but the transcodes are not interlaced. having said that, should they be? if so, which field should come first for PAL? wouldn’t this look terrible on a computer?!
