Overscan Question

[politicalwhiz]

How do I overscan using GB-PVR? I get a white dotted line at the top of my screen, I have no problem with a solution that just zooms in and crops evenly around the frame or one that just knocks off the top. I just want to know how to adjust it. Thanks!

In config.xml there are a few settings that you might be able to play with:
<!-- overscan control (zoom is floating point: 1.0 is fullsize), offset is integer (pixels)) -->
<HorizontalZoom>1.05</HorizontalZoom>
<HorizontalOffset>0</HorizontalOffset>
<VerticalZoom>1.00</VerticalZoom>
<VerticalOffset>0</VerticalOffset>
<OverScanBorderX1>0</OverScanBorderX1>
<OverScanBorderY1>0</OverScanBorderY1>
<OverScanBorderX2>0</OverScanBorderX2>
<OverScanBorderY2>0</OverScanBorderY2>

You can also define a custom aspect ratio that removes the top 1% of the screen. I discuss how to do that here:
