In v.11, how do I burn a DVD to full-screen? I tell it to, but the program keeps burning to widescreen.

In V.11, how do I burn a DVD to full-screen?  I have told it to, but it keeps burning to widescreen.

Great news. Great job sorting through the details.
The core of your issue went to the differences between Premiere Elements 9 and 11 and its default project presets and how project preset is set.
Some of the factors are found

Add to the mix, that the project preset directs the program to make certain settings (assumptions). So, if you have a HD project preset, you are going to see NTSC_Widescreen_Dolby DVD set as the default in the burn dialog. I am guessing that you were letting the project control setting the Premiere Elements 11 project preset, and it was giving you its default NTSC AVCHD Full HD1080i30 instead of NTSC DV Standard.
But the ground rules are
a. know the properties of your source media
b. set the project preset to match the properties of the source media (if the project does not do it right, then you set the project preset manually)
c. keep the export settings consistent with the other project settings.
I will spare you the rest of the details for now. Just know, please do not hesitate to ask if you have questions or need clarification.
Thanks.
