You could also adjust the options in myth to use a certain screen width...
This might be a bad idea if you use your system for other things on the TV,
as they wouldn't get adjusted.  However, it works if you only use it for
Myth.

I was sort of forced into doing this... i just bought a new (somewhat cheap)
scan converter... it has built in overscan/underscan, but no way to really
actually adjust them (unlike most i've seen)... I'm probably going to return
it and get one with an actual menu (other than an overscan/underscan
switch).  But, in the mean time, I've adjusted myth (under
setup->appearances->gui width/height, i believe) to use a slightly smaller
portion of the screen, with overscan on the scan converter.
