First verify you've properly configured your system:

http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Display_Size
and, perhaps,

(Otherwise, after you "fix" it, you'll have to fix it correctly when
0.21 is released and you upgrade.)

Then, edit /usr{,/local}/share/mythtv/themes/<my_OSD_theme>/osd.xml . 
It should be pretty straight-forward what needs changing, but if not,
the best approach is to figure it out through trial and error.
