I got PowerDVD with my Asus video board. Like it a lot. Plays
everything.

I haven't tried it yet, but google for avest022.zip or
avestensione.dll. From the website and README:

A video-header patcher. Useful to generate (mini)DVDs with
non-standard video resolutions (like 480x480).

AVestensione lets you patch the headers to be "conforming" before
starting the DVD-authoring, and re-patch them before burning the DVD. 

In addition AVestensione lets you patch the aspect ratio of an MPEG2
file, which may habe been changed for instance by mpeg2vcr V 3.11.
Installation and use: 
AVestensione is a windows shell extension. You have to register it
with regsvr32. Just execute

regsvr32 avestensione.dll

in a DOS-Window.

After that when right-clicking on an MPEG2 video file, you will find
another page called "Video" under "Properties".
