Size changes from AVI to WMV

I'm new to DV, so if I ask a dumb question just ignore me. :)
I have an AVI file that runs fine in WinMedia player. However, it's 5MB+. I want to reduce the file size and keep the screen size. WMV seems to be the best format for viewing in a Web page. Size properties of the AVI are 584x292 (on the pan/crop tab). When I render to WMV, the size is 320x240. I know I'm missing a step but can't figure out what.
Thanks for your help (and patience)

Also, can anyone recommend some references for learning about DV. books or tutorials?

Hello,

There is no way to set a custom resolution when rendering WMV within VideoFactory. The templates offer the resolutions of 640*480, 320*240, and 176*144 depending on what template you use. You can see the resolution for the template in the description box when you go to Make Movie.
