I thought that positive values would move it right or down but that
won't help you because, as you say, the bottom is already lined up with
the bottom.  What you need is some form of overscan which I'm not sure
if it's available for your tv-out driver.  One thing is for sure, and I
say this because I spent a lot of time solving my problem (the solution
was nvtv BTW the problem was overscanning on geforce 2), as I was
saying, I will be very surprised if you can solve this problem from
mythtv, it is a problem that you need to solve from your driver side of
things...

Anyway, good luck.
