I am in the process of producing a standard definition DVD for a client. I have footage from two cameras, my Sony Z5U in it's .m2t format and from a Hitachi studio camera in ProRes 422 HQ format which is .mov. All works fine in my Vegas Pro 12 64 bit for editing but when I render using the Main Concept MPEG-2 template for DVD Architect NTSC Widescreen, the clips from my camera look fine but the clips from the other have significant horizontal motion distortion. The footage is of a dance recital and the legs of the dancers are very wavy when moved from side to side. If I render as a web file like 1280 x 720-30p using Sony AVC/MVC in .mpg file, the distortion is much better but when sent to DVDA, it resizes the picture so it no longer fills the screen, it is letterboxed in both directions. Any ideas on how I can get these two formats to render properly for a SD DVD?
