Thanks Mike. I was aware of this particular issue. It's one of the things I
had in mind when asking the list for specific recommendations. But nobody
seemed to have any notable issues apparently... It is something I'll look
at, but I'm sure it can be difficult to track down what sort of overscan
options the TV offers.
