Saving movie from MM2 as AVI file then problems burning DVD

I have made movies with MM2 and saved them as wmv files and they play fine on
my computer. Now I have a DVD burner and want to burn those movies onto a
DVD for playback from my DVD to my TV. I went back to the original MM
project and this time saved as avi file instead of wmv. When I then try to
burn DVD (using NeoDVDplus5 and saving onto computer first), it all works
except my still pictures that are part of my overall movie appear stretched
during playback. The video portion seems fine during playback.

Anybody have some ideas as to the problem ?

Sounds like a problem with the aspect rtatio size of the pictures and the
encoder. Try making the pictures the same size as your tv aspect, 720x576
PAL, 720x480 ntsc and see if this helps. Try a couple of pictures in a small
sample first.
