Technical question relating to aspect rations on DVDs burned in Sony Vegas.

Some of my vids were made on Corel Video Studio and some on Sony Vegas, but I wanted to put them on a DVD to play on TV, so I loaded them all into Sony Vegas and burned the DVD.

The ones I'd made in Sony Vegas were in 4:3 aspect ratio and all came out okay when played from the DVD.

Most of the ones I'd made in Corel Video Studio were also in 4:3, but when burned using Sony Vegas they all appeared stretched laterally when I played the DVD - ie. everyone's faces etc. were too wide.

A couple made in Corel were in 16:9 (not sure why) and these came out okay or perhaps slightly too tall on the DVD - this seems even more crazy.

Any idea what is going on?

Summary: General action-y vid
Spoilers: Not for the very end, but yes, some
Notes: I've never seen BSG but I saw McCreary rec'd on [livejournal.com profile] fandomsecrets a couple posts ago and thought this track, Prelude to War, would make a good Tron vid. Y/Y?
