I haven't used Pinnacle products for awhile, but wondered if there's a feature in Studio 8 that will let you convert your captured footage to another ratio?

After 2 years of field work collecting footage, editing, and numerous technical glitches, we're nearing the finish line. I know just enough about Pinnacle Studio 8, DV, firewire, and burning DVDs to get myself into trouble. Our current situation is that the DVD plays beautifully on a computer monitor but not so hot on a TV w/DVD player. That is, the image is cut off on the top, bottom, and sides. I know that this has to do with aspect ratios, letterbox, and the like but haven't a clue as to what, if anything, we can do in our editing process to address this. Anybody out there have some suggestions?
