Project prefs change when I import video
I started a new project in PE 2020. Set video to DV 720x480. Import a video that is 720x480 and now the project is showing 640x480.

How are you picking the settings? Are you checking the box to force settings? What is the source of the video?
The normal and expected way to establish project setting is to let Premiere Elements do it. Rather than pick settings, you slide a primary clip to the time line to establish the best settings.
