That's a bummer... but still your quality isn't bad. I mean it's definitely not detracting from you video. I do think however, having the HD link there and the window expanding to 16:9 format HD when the video isn't... IS a bit distracting.
Like I said... I would render as high res as you can, but keep it at 720x480. Personally I think you'll have a better final result.
Also if you're interested in truly recording HD... look into a Black Magic Intensity cap card. It allows you to capture via HDMI... and you can actually get 1080i HD! it costs around $250 USD.
edit: the other option if you HAVE to use USB to connect to your computer is Hauppauge's HD PVR... again the cost is around $250, but it can also capture 1080i via Component (Red/Green/Blue) cables.
