AE squeezing dvcpro hd footage

[wigglefarm]

Hi, I am having issues whenever I bring my hpx170 clips into after effects. Whenever I import the clips and put them into a new composition it squeezes the footage into a 4:3 composition the comp settings are dvc pro hd 720 29.97 with the pixel aspect ratio dvcpro hd 720 (1.33). Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thanks

Right click on your footage and check the "interpret footage". Make sure its bringing it in properly.

Ya everything looks normal in the interpret footage settings

Can you do a few screen grabs?

Here is the squeezed image(looks to be 4:3)

Here is the normal 16:9 image

Here are the comp settings
I have never worked with HD in after effects. I am sure that I am missing something simple.
