Final Cut Pro is changing the resolution on export

Hello, problem is pretty straightforward.


My project is 1164x720 and when I go to export to computer (mp4) my only resolution options are 960x594 and 854x528.


It's a really simple podcast video with the only files being the mp4 recording and .png overlay.


I've done podcasts in the past with similar file resolutions without any problems.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.4

It must have something to do with the size. Whenever you try a standardized preset it changes to Rec 601. I can only suggest exporting a master file and using Compressor or some other application to convert it to MPEG-4, if that's what you have to have.
