My animations always export to 720x480 regardless of changes

I'm not sure if I'm just missing something or what but everything in my settings is set to be 1280x720 resolution. However once the animation has finished rendering I end up with a skewed video that is now 720x480. I don't know why it's doing this but can anyone help me figure out why I can't seem to export an animation in the resolution I want?
I have added screenshots of the settings and a screen shot showing the final video resolution has changed.

Looking at your screensot i see you are rendering straight to an AVI file from 3DSmax. The codec could interfere. This is certainly not "best practice" when rendering animations. Render to frames and use a third party application like after effects to compile the animation.

Yea I think the codec is causing the issue because if I render an image it renders to whatever resolution I want. I'll just render the images out and compile them in post but it would be nice to know the cause. Thanks for your reply.
