How to change pixel aspect ratio of imported media?

Hello, everyone,

I made a computer animation the frames of which I already rendered in PAL resolution and (Vegas-)PAL pixel aspect ratio 1.0926.

I edited it in Vegas (doesn't really matter, I guess) and rendered it in PAL resulution as PNG-compressed Quicktime.

When I bring the Quicktime movie into DVD Architect project I get black bars to the left and right of it. DVDA obviously thinks that the media is in 1.0 PAR. I don't blame it for this assumption ;) but would like to tell it that this is actually PAL, both resolution- and PAR-wise.

How can I do this? Or do I have to ressort to rendering the edited animation in Vegas at 786x576?

Thanks for your help,
Marc

Render to mpeg from Vegas. You'll have more control, and if you build the project and then need to make changes to your menu (for whatever reason), you'll avoid having to re-render.
