OK, heres what I did. I shot film in 24P and capture it in both FCP and IMovie. When I captured it in Imovie to do a simple "rough cut" I burned it to DVD and it displays just fine on TV. So when I did my final edit, I captured the footage in FCP with 2:3...pulldown remove mode. I edited on a 720x480 24P canvas and when I export and burn it to DVD, it does not take up the whole TV (minus the letterbox mode when shot), it is maybe 80% of the size of the actual correct size. What did I do and ho can I fix it? Thanks
 
How are you encoding it? With Compressor or inside DVDSP or iDVD? Did you shoot with Squeeze mode to make it 16:9?
