CCE mpeg Discoloration Questions

[Insaniac]

I'm a new user to the DVD and VCD encoding arena, so any help from those "in the know" would be appreciated! I'm using the Premiere Plug-in CCE SP 2.62.

I'm Encoding captured AVI to DVD compliant MPEG2 From Adobe Premiere 5.1. Everything I encode seems to have an ugly green tint to it. What can I do to prevent this? Is it the luminance setting? I'm unfamiliar with the formulas and Algorithms shown in the manual, and I hope someone might be able to give me an easy explanation!

And since The AVI video was captured from an analog source, I have some interlace issues. Can these be remedied?

And my last question: My AVIs are 640x480, as I'm Rendering/encoding should I stretch it to 720x480(Standard digital/DVD size)? How would it look on a TV?

I really appreciate any time you can spare to help a rookie!

About your first question, i once had this kind of problem, and it was related to RGB/YUY2 conversion.

Premiere exports in RGB; try to set the plugin so that it decodes in RGB format, not YUY2 (i don't use the plugin, so i don't know more).

For the second and third questions, i'd advice you to use the avisynth plugin (www.videotools.net), and prepare your script with FitCD (http://members.tripod.de/fitcd/).
