don't user you video card to display live tv. User tv out from your 350.

I use the tv-out on my geforce and found Tv Tool to be good for changing the overscan/underscan settings to let the picture fill the screen.

I have the Geforce 4 MX440 card and the PVR-350,
The tv out of the Geforce card is convenient , as my DVDs , Div X, etc go through that , so putting it all on one AV channel of the TV is handy.

The picture quality of the 350, though, is much better when watching TV, so I now have settled at using 2 AV channels, one for DVD's , etc and one for TV (using GB PVR obviously !.

It is a pain that the 350 output is only good for TV, but it is so much better (in my setup), that it is worth the extra effort.

Sorry,
should also have added that I have used the overscan settings in the config.xml document in the GBPVR directory to set the overscan correctly for the 350 TV out. If you want to use the TV out of the 350 and tweak it too fit your screen, thats the place to do it.
