Hi Timothy, Thanks for your detailed and valuable information. I can't try your last resort suggestion since I need to develop commercial version. And yes, I found the new(latest but same brand(BENQ) as the one it didn't work) TV is fine for displaying.
I'll go sigmadesigns to talk about this issue since we are using their sdk. I'll post if there is any other good way.

Hi Gijung, I am not familiar with the hardware you are using, however since the video display layer does not support the DLCAPS_SCREEN_LOCATION capability (and probably also not support DLCAPS_SCREEN_SIZE capability) that indicates that the display layer will not automatically up/down scale the display layer surface to the desired size for output. Support for the DLCAPS_SCREEN_POSITION capability is necessary to be able to reposition the unscaled/scaled destination rectangle in the blended output. Without knowing the hardware, one last resort approach (expensive) to deal with this situation is to setup video playback to be performed to a non-visible/off-screen surface which is then stretch blit (at the desired frame rate whenever the single/double buffered surface is updated) to the same dedicated display layer in the desired location. BTW: The cropping you are noticing and trying to account for is due to the "overscan" region not being visible. On some DTVs it can actually be disabled (such as with some Sony Bravia models). Content is generally created/produced to account for the various display regions which are known as the Production Aperture (full area), Clean Aperture (central ~99% of Production Aperture, but is actually defined in pixels based on the display mode), Safe Action Area (central 90% for 4:3 of Clean Aperture, with 93% for 16:9), and Safe Title Area (central 80% for 4:3 of Clean Aperture, with 80% horizontal and 90% vertical for 16:9).
