Hi,

Are you using the bt869 module from lm_sensors to enable tv out?

I've done a patch for that to do a 720x756 mode that overscans and thus
looks good on a TV.  Also might avoid the need to scale for you.

I've submitted to the maintainers, but in the meantime drop me a line and
I'll send it.

Steve
