Post subject:  Live TV video too big please help

I am a noobie but I got the live tv working :D after a week of reading and playing. My question is how do you change the size of the live tv on the screen? Right now about a 1/4 of the screen is missing to the right I think it is because I have it set for 720 X 480 can someone please tell me how to change it to 480 X 480 by the way I have a Nvidia 5200 FWIW :wink:

Thanks

Search for information about "overscan". I think there is some stuff on the wiki too.

Thanks for the tips I searched the forum and found alot of usefull info, mostly concerning XConfig files. After reading my first post again I do not think I was giving enough detail about my problem, first I am useing my monitor not a TV yet and the menu's and font's are all perfect in Myth. My problem is that when watching live TV or a recording the video vertically is the right size but horizontally it is streched. The best way to describe it is that it looks like 720X480 and the right side is falling off the screen. Does this still sound like a config problem with the video card or a problem with my PVR-150 settings?

Thanks again and I am sorry if this has been discussed before but I could not find my problem after searching the forum :oops:

Try setting both your Default and Live TV recording profile settings to 720x480. This sounds counterintuitive, but give it a try.
