Rendering to MPEG2

When rendering to MPEG2 within MS (using Mainconcept codec) , colors are rendered incorrectly. I t appears as if red and blue are switched. Is this a bug in the encoder or am I missing something?

Hi Arthur:

When I render, I use the MainConcept MPEG-2 Format and the DVD NTSC Template. I have never encountered the problem you are describing with colours being mixed up.

I am assuming the video clip displays okay in Screenblast.

After you render it, do you notice the problem if you view the clip on your PC or does it happen just when you view it on your TV?

If you render it to a different format (MPEG-1 or .mov or .wmv, etc.) does the same thing happen?

This only occurs with the MPEG2 encoder. AVI, for example works fine. The clip displays fine in Screenblast and every other viewer. I also used the DVD NTSC template. I have tried this several times with the same result. I will try MPEG1 also.
