Quick comment on the pixilation issue, some of the dvd encoding might have a glitch that when you play back the dvd, it is not noticeable, however, it will be very obvious when you go on frame by frame. Recently I finished working on a corporate video, and converted the avi into mpeg for the client, we played without any issue, but when it was brought back into the NLE program, at certain frame, there is the pixilation issue, we found out later it was due to bad encoding. One way to fix it is to re-encode, and in your case, perhaps converting the file into avi might help take the issue out, worst case, delete that bad frame off the timeline...
