Questions about video encoding.

When I encode using Canopus Procoder, the resulting clip seems very pixellated (ie. it looks like a game with no anti-aliasing) when played with PowerDVD. However, the same clip encoded with TMPEnc Xpress is fine.

The source video aspect ratio is set to 4:3 and the pixel aspect ratio is set to square pixel in Procoder. For the target the aspect ratio code is set to 4:3. So what the heck is going on??

Anyway, which program is better for encoding to DVD?? Procoder or TMPMEnc Xpress??

Also, is there quality loss when going from a interlaced source to a progressive target? Should I even do that(I usually encode DVDs) or should I keep the source and target both either interlaced or both progressive??
 
I use Procoder with no problems.
You must have a wrong configuration somewhere.

If you are making DVDs, which are meant to be watched on TV, then always use interlaced. The same DVD will play fine on your computer monitor because the
computer will automatically de-interlace it.
