why do you want to render in AE?
I wouldn't do the final render in AE. I would export as uncompressed, and then I would set the sequence in Premiere, and I would render there. What kind of format do you want? HD-DVD, DVD, VHS, DV cassette? Choose the format and then we can help more. Although your TV is not HD, I would export it as HD, because later you may buy a new telly.

Depengind on the length, I would render either fully uncopressed and put the audio back in another NLE (premiere, Vegas) and output the final from there to be put to DVD or whatever format you are looking for. Before you render out ov AF, right click on your footage as soon as you import it to AE. Go to Interpret footage and be sure it is being interpereted correctly. If it is something like a TV show or something of length, you might want to keep it in AE for the whole thing. Either way, you will ned to up a composition to the correct video dimensioins and format for your HDV project, and drag your 50i into it. Then, create another composition of with the wide screen format you wish to output. Nest your HD Comp in the SD Wide comp, and change the drop the scale of the nested comp to fit.
As long as both compositions are set up correctly, and your footage is interpereted correctly, there shouldn't be a problem.

I don't know if vegas is as good as AE for maintaining the quality of video if it's scaled down. Vegas would be great to assemble the finished audio and video, but I would use AE to convert the HD 50i to SD 25p.
Again, it depends on the length of the video. If you are going to export as an image sequence, thing about .png or .tga, both of which can use a degree of losless compression.

well If it is the full video, and not only a few scenes, you can render in AE to mpeg2, but if you will edit it later render what ever you want (I mean TIFF or HDV...) I personally prefer TIFF sequences because If you stop the rendering, you will able to restart it from the stop-point. or I you want to change something on a frame, you won't have to re-render the whole scene.
from the direction of vegas, I do not know, because I have never used vegas.
