I record and playback via SVideo. I have noticed that play back of
recordings and videos don't fill the entire screen as mythfrontend
does. OverScan is full throttle. I have driver overscan at *max* in
xorg.conf and in ~/.nvidia-settings-rc=TVOverScan[TV-0]=21. Many of
mythfronted tabs and buttons are off the screen but Video and recording
playback could still use overscan increase to hide the edges. I have not
touched MythFrontend overscan.
