your video size problem is because you need to resize the video first, i recommend with avisynth. install avisynth if you havent already, then i recommend using FitCD to write a resize script for you.

when you open fitcd, first off, open your video (click "Source" under MPEG resizing). make sure 720 is selected in the dropdown box on the destination side. if your source and destination is PAL, make sure PAL is checked on both the Source and desitination side. if the source and your destination is both NTSC, leave both unchecked. if you want to convert from PAL to NTSC, check PAL on the source side and leave PAL unchecked on the destination side (or vice versa if you want to convert NTSC to PAL). there is a dropdown box in the lower right of the screen; select Lanczos resize. if the video is widescreen, make sure Anamorphic is checked on the destination side. save the script and close.

as for your audio sync problem, most MPEG encoders have problems with VBR audio. the best way to avoid this is to extract the WAV with virtualdub, and if you want, you can convert that WAV to 2ch ac3 (with ffmpeg or besweet). download virtualdub, open the video (youll probably get a popup message, just click ok). go to audio -> full processing mode. then go to file -> save wav. it will save a fairly large WAV audio file which you can now use with your video file, and it should be in sync.

now that you've saved the wav file, you need to add a few lines in your avisynth script (if you're just gonna use the wav audio and not convert it to ac3 - if you converted the WAV to ac3, you can skip this step). open your avisynth script you made earlier with notepad and modify it so its like this:
clip=AVISource("source.avi", False)
aud=WAVSource("source.wav")
AudioDub(clip,aud)
ResampleAudio(48000)

and leave the Lanczos resize lines there. if you converted the audio to AC3, your can use that with your dvd authoring program (if it supports ac3).

now open the script with CCE, select MPEG1 as audio and it should be the correct size with the audio in sync.
