Try 3 way color correction. First do your white balance on both by using something white in your footage, then do minor adjustments.

Are you looking at the preview window, or at a final DVD.
The preview window isn’t a good assessment of the final product, and will dispay a non-rasterized version.
Also, what settings are you using?

If you are referring to the actual Mpeg2 encoder, Mainconcept’s encoder is as good as any. The only really way to improve an encoding is to control it scene by scene with difference keyframes and bitrates. Now, VBR 2 Pass does a pretty good job with the bitrate.
Make you do use that setting for anything over 50 minutes, otherwise use 8MBs CBR.
For a most eficient use of DVD space use a Bitrate calculator.

The problem here is that somehow Premiere is unable to find the indexed files on the next load in. Either someone is deleting them, or that directory changes location somehow (That can happen with networked drives).
I don’t know much about HDD Sheriff, but it could be imposing a quota on the drive, or deleting those files afterwards if they go beyond a certin size, which would make sense on a public computer.
It is verly likely the issue here.

Perry,
Since the blue channel in cameras is the most prone to noise, you can use the “Channel Blur” effect and add blur on the blue channel.
Play with that until you get a good balance.

Are they on an external drive? If so, you need to make sure that the drive letter remains the same.
Premiere needs to index mpegs because of the way they are compressed, and there is no way around it. You wouldn’t otherwise be able to preview your editing.

Unfortunately, nobody in the commercial world will be giving away good quality footage, and especially not given the high cost of bandwidth.
The only site that may have something like that for free is archive.org
I found one, and there are a few more: https://www.archive.org/details/Waves_0

Well, it depends on whether the area around the text changes or not. If it doesn’t, it’ll be a piece of cake.

Not without After Effect, and likely some frame by frame cloning.
You could either make it 16:9 if it isn’t already, or maybe add a logo/lower tird to cover it ?

What type of computer, what size images, what image format?
