Just picked up a used Panasonic 60" LCD RPTV. I hooked my HTPC up to one of the RGB inputs and set the HTPC to 1280x720p. It looks good but there is severe overscan. I can't see the start menu at all and I can't see the top bar of any window where the minimize, maximize, and close buttons are.
As far as adjustments on the TV goes, for some reason it won't allow me to adjust the screen size if it has a 720p or 1080i signal. I guess I could have 480p going to the TV so I could use the adjustments but that would not be ideal.
Powerstrip has adjustments for the screen but they don't seem to work (trying to shrink the vertical size just acts like a vertical position adjustment and doesn't actually shrink anything).
I seem to remember there being overscan options in ATI and Nvidia control panels, unfortunately I'm stuck with this intel integrated graphics and nothing but PCI slots, the best PCI card I might be able to put in there is an ancient Voodoo Banshee.
Any idea how I might be able to get rid of this overscan?
