Its not the overscan, i was previously able to get the zoom to work correctly, and the SXRD has some non service mode compensation for overscan int he user menu, quite nice actually. rather the zoom for some reason i cant comprehend is zooming an extra 20% or so, enough that i lose almost the entire station logo no matter what station im watching, whereas a proper zoom would preserve the entire station logo that is not on the horizontal bars.

You mean "pillarboxed", with bars on the sides? Some stations for their 4:3 programming do this bastard 14:9 stretch where they stretch it some but not all the way. All you can do is write a letter to station management complaining about this, ask them to send standard 4:3 with the wide vertical bars so you can watch undistorted, or zoom it yourself if you want. These non-std stretch modes applied by the broadcaster that can't be undone giving the consumer no choice in the matter are an abomination in my opinion.

Ok that definitely explains one of the problems, i appreciate that.
