There has been some discussion in other threads about TVs that automatically choose overscan/1:1 or rgb-full/rgb-limited depending on the input signal, maybe this related to your problem?

Hmm, that's a possibility. I currently have my input named MythTV on
the receiver, I could try naming it back to PC when I get home.
That being the case, how hard would it be to just tell MythTV to center
itself inside the display area with a smaller working area? I tried the
'Screen Setup Wizard', which resized the screen but left it hugging the
top left corner so things were overscanned with a ton of blank space on
the bottom and right.
