All,

I have been all over the forums for the last couple of days now. I have recently purchased a new Toshiba 56 Cinema Series DLP. I just got 1080i working correctly (actually, it supports 1080p).

Here is what I am finding out.
1. Playback from live tv is choppy.
2. Related to 1, I tried going into the mythtv settings to adjust some of the settings, but the myth menuing is extended beyond the outside of the screen, so I do not know what settings I am trying to adjust.
3. I still have the black letterboxing above and below my display when I try to view tv or recording.

My first issue to address would be getting the menus to view correctly. Any help here would be greatly appreciated. I am not entirely sure what I should be posting here, so if anyone needs to see any configuration file, please let me know and I will post them.

In the meantime, here are the relevent parts of my XF86Config-4 that I have been modifying lately.
