You'll never keep the same colours if you are in NTSC land. NTSC DV is
sampled at 4:1:1 but NTSC DVDs are sampled in 4:2:0 which can cause the
problems you are seeing. PAL DVDs tend to fare better as PAL DV is already
encoded in 4:2:0.
Changes in saturation (both increase and decrease) can also be due to a poor
encoder. Check out cinecraft basic for the best encoder IMO at an
affordable price.
