The video was taken with a Panasonci PV-GS300, which as a frame of 720x480 and a DAR of 16:9. I tried to Movies 720x406, and it looks fine. However, the TV displays it correctly in "Full" mode, and shows a "Normal" mode as well, which would only be present when 4:3 content is being displayed. The video is supposed to be widescreen, but it appears the TV thinks it's 4:3. That has me confused :)

Also, is there a guide to tweaking profiles? I wanted to increase the bit rate of the transcoding profile used. I figured out I could change that below, but was wondering if there were other things I could do to tweak video quality.

IfThen(mpInternetItem,
WmsTranscodingProfileParams('Internet-television'),
IfThen(mpSubItemsCount > 0,
WmsTranscodingDvdParams(720, 406, 8000000, 448000),
WmsTranscodingInputParams + WmsTranscodingVideoParams(720, 406, 8000000, 448000) +
WmsTranscodingMapParams(mpAudioStreamNo)))
Transcoding settings - Settings-Transcoder - "Codecs, frame"

On this page transcoding options, including video bitrate.
If you are using the "Movies (primary) _720x406", then the video bitrate is set in the profile transcoding.
