How to save HD in 16x9 and not 4x3?

I have a Sony HDR-HC1 and have created an movie in iMovie 6, importing video in the HDV format (16x9). No matter what I try, including "fixes" already posted, I cannot save the movie, in any format tried, in that aspect ratio. I only get 4x3. Any known fixes?

Now I'm completely confused as to what you're trying to do.
- "share to iDVD" works perfectly for me. I get a 16x9 project.
- If I change the aspect ratio in QT Pro, and import that into iDVD, that works as well.
- I also just tried choosing "Share > Quicktime > Expert settings" and choosing "Apple Intermediate Codec" "Preset: other / Current Frame Rate" and setting the size to 1920x1080, and exporting that. That also plays correctly, and doesn't require QT Pro, if that's a problem; the pixel stretching is done on export for you.
You mention .dv; HD projects are not DV, so if you're selecting that as the export format, that'd be a problem. HD projects are natively in Apple Intermediate Codec format.
