Capture size generally refers to the size coming off tape. If I'm capturing off of a DV tape, for example, my software captures at 720x480. If I'm capturing off of BetaSP or DigiBeta, it captures at 720x486. However, that assumes the source is a .9 pixel ratio source - like those two tape formats are. However, importing graphic or computer-generated movies is not the same as capturing. I'm not familiar with the specific software packages you've mentioned but I know Pinnacle has been around and in the video business for a long time. I can't imagine them putting out something that couldn't properly import computer generated movies or graphics with square pixels. Certainly, if the software has the ability to import image sequences it should be able to properly import square pixel material. If I were using that software I'd check and see if it has any kind of scaling or resizing function. If so, I'd still render my square-pixel items at 720x540 but after importing them I'd resize them within the software to 720x480 (in other words squeese them vertically but not horizontally. If not, well... I guess I'd just suck it up and render at the 720x480 as a last choice. tufif, After Effects outputs .9 pixel files wonderfully. I'd still render out of Poser at 720x540, import it into a 720x480 After Effects comp and resize the Poser renders to fit. The final output would have the .9 pixels

Before they made me they broke the mold!
