I believe it's supposed to be that way. Most TVs overscan. You should
scale the menus to fit, but not the TV playback. Any processing of the
playback will lose quality, so no scaling, no TVDeflicker, and no
deinterlacing.

The drivers have a built in set of modelines. They are not read from
xorg.conf AFAIK.
