Glad it worked. I don't think you needed to use the Letterbox in the Filters tab. I never use that. I think It's for putting a letterbox effect (that actually crops off the top and bottom) over existing 4:3 footage. In this case It just cropped off the black from the letterbox in the Geometry pane, so no harm done. Just doing it in the Geometry pane is enough. In order to see what's happening in the Geometry pane, you may need to move the slider in the Preview window to show the result.

Thanks everybody for the help. I do want it baked into the DVD because I've had a bad experience with another projectionist who refused to take direction and totally screwed up a theatrical screening. I told him the audio was a stereo mix and he insisted that on playing it back in surround sound.
This time I'm not taking any chances.Based on John Pale's suggestions, I figured out the settings in Compressor by trial and error. I checked the Letterbox option in FILTERS and selected "Letterbox area of source" in GEOMETRY>SOURCE INSET (CROPPING) and 4x3 1.33:1 in GEOMETRY> OUTPUT IMAGE INSET (PADDING).Thanks John Beck for the link to InfoEdit.com. And George for the DVD Player settings help. After all these years of watching DVDs I should have thought to check the player settings.DUH!!! I attribute it to old age.Thanks again.Tony
