An update-  I was able to get the color adjusted to settings I can live with
using nvidia-settings.  I made sure I have the command in place to re-apply
my tweaked settings on login/bootup.  The TV can switch between the
cable input and the MythTV input so I can clearly see that they're
different,
but they're both viewable.  I didn't have to try the composite approach.

Now the remaining display issue is the small font used in the mythwelcome
dialogs.  Is this one that I have to find the .xml for and modify it?

Craig.
