Setting it to 'Fit' it looks exactly the same.
As stated above, this is the menu. The cropping IS present in the video as well.
The TV is a widescreen TV with the aspect ratio set to "auto" or "SD" (both did the same thing, detecting that it was SD video, thus placing black on the left and right on the SD images, the problem is that the footage itself is cropped on ALL settings, this was tried on multiple TV's and DVD players, so I know it's not a setting on the DVD play or TV [different brands of TV's and DVD Players])
So, the whole issue is that the project is fine when preparing, but once placed onto a DVD, it crops all footage -title, footage, everything- on all four sides.
