Maya to 16:9 DVD?

anybody know how to properly setup maya rendering for outputting for use on a DVD?

i know DVD mpeg2 format for NTSC is supposed to be 720x480, but I'm unsure how to setup 16:9 aspect ratio in Maya, i got all sorts of aspect ratios in render globals and in camera attributes...

what's the best approach? anybody care to clarify this stuff for little confused me? user added image

Well, it depends on what LENS you are using for your shot.

Also, the 601 standard for tv is 720x480 using a pixel aspect ration of 1.
OR 720x486 using a pixel aspect ratio of .9

Other European contries use the PAL standard, and it really depends on your final personal quality needs, or your studio prefsuser added image

35mm first:
