    This question may sound strange to some of you but, well... I'm a n00b.
    If I have a 640x480 avi and I encode it to a 720x480 DVD compliant mpeg in TmpgEnc, is the video being "stretched"? That is is the resulting video ACTUALLY PHYSICALLY 720x480 meaning it was stretched? I'm concerned about this because I've seen resizing done in TmpgEnc and it ain't pretty. Should I resize my video to 720x480 in VirtualDub first if I don't want TmpgEnc to resize it? I know that once played on the DVD player the video will technically be 640x480 again, but I'm really concerned about quality. Well, I guess my question really is, what should I do to preserve the most quality?

    Yep, you can do the resize to 720x480 in virtualdub(or avisynth) and then frameserve to tmpgenc.

    Oh ok, so then I can be 100% certain that TmpegEnc will NOT do any resizing. Thanks a bunch.
