What are the steps to reproduce this problem:
See above. Using the "better" method in this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWMX5lSvEgY

True, but the problem is occurring in the current version.

Please include the log anyway, as this will give us more information about what's happening.

When saving your preset, did you make sure that "Max Picture Size" was set to "Custom" with your intended resolution?

No, I selected Source Max Size as instructed in musicvid's youtube video. I will try custom instead. Thank you.
BTW, musicvid, do you have any suggestions for changes to the handbrake settings in the newer version, or is everything still basically the same?

The tutorial is there for legacy reasons, and no updates are planned.
Marco's frameserving script (Vegas2Handbrake) is better, but you apparently have to jump through a few hoops to get it working.
Sony Vegas Pro forum is the place to find that information.

Yes it is better than using the dnxhd intermediate, however once in HB, you still need to use a preset for the x264 encode. I guess what I am asking is if there should be any modifications to the handbrake settings in your tutorial when using the Vegas2handbrake method as opposed to the DNxHD intermediate file method.

Sony Vegas Pro forum is the place to ask that question. School is starting, and I just don't have the time to run tests.
