Keep going, very interesting to read about you experiences and problems encountered using the RIoTBoard !

I'm sure this info will be useful for all the RIoTBoard Road Testers.

Unfortunately that's a TV 'thing'. You need to set 'overscan' to off or '1-1 pixel mode' different manufacturers set it to different things. Overscan is a relic of CRT displays, it's not necessary for HD signals. There's the chance of interesting effects if you still have SD stuff though.

Some useful reading on the subject:
