Windows Movie Maker/ DVD maker

I'm trying to burn an AVI file onto a DVD that I made in Movie Maker in a widescreen aspect ratio. When I export it to DVD maker and create the menu for it, then preview the DVD, everything looks fine. When I burn the DVD and put it in my player, the image for the movie has been squished down into a regular TV aspect ratio. Does anyone know what the problem might be and how I might fix it?

I don't know anything about WMM :(. Is the native AR of the AVI widescreen or standard? If it's standard, maybe WMM is for some reason failing to reformat it as widescreen.
