Default DVD Architect 3.0: Menus + video too large

I created, prepared and burned a DVD using Sony DVD architect 3.0c (build 133).

Whether I set the video resolution to NTSC 720x480 or 352x240, the image size is magnified such that the edges of the screen are cut off. My menus are cut off a bit on all sides, and the video image is magnified. Everything looked OK in the Preview and when I play the DVD on the computer. I doubt it is just my DVD player and TV because I've never had this issue before with other DVDs.

Has anyone experienced this problem? Or do you have a suggestions for what the problem might be? I appreciate your help.

Dave

OK, it turns out that the image wasn't too large, but that I placed menu items outside the Action and Title Safe Areas. A beginners mistake, especially when DVD Architect warns you about these problems before you prepare for burning.
