using VPro 9.0d 64bit. project is HDV 1080-60i (1440x1080) 29.970 fps. NTSC

When I render AVI's using "Default template" preset with pixel aspect ratio set at 1.3333
The rendered AVI looks fine on the vegas timeline, but 3 other programs: media info, windows media, and AVI to Flash converter all say the AVI is 4:3 and won't handel it any other way.

Any help please.

The AVI "default template" is uncompressed.
Uncompressed AVI does not honor PAR settings. It's all 1:1.
The solution is to render your 1440x1080 HDV as 1920x1080 AVI, and check "Stretch to fill output" when rendering. Simple enough.

Why do you want to render HDV to uncompressed AVI? You are creating some monstrous file sizes compared to your originals, but to no advantage.
