Does the trick. I'm not sure I really understand resolutions very
well. For example, scale=540:-2, along with other resolutions,
completely garbled the image. Do you know how to determine "valid"
resolutions without having to resort to trial and error?



Yes, for mplayer they have to be divisible by 8, it looks like (I thought it was 16, but the fact that 520 works means it must be 8).

The trouble seems to be with using the "-fs" option. No matter what I scale the output to, the PVR350 overscan still cuts off the subtitles.
Is this just endemic with the PVR350 or am I doing something wrong
here?

The only thing that doesn't cut off the subtitles that I could get to
work was the following:

mplayer -quiet -geometry 32%:50%  -display :0 \
 -vf scale=520:-2 -zoom -vo xv /var/video/mythvideo/
Lunar_Bleach_58.avi

However, that leaves me with the window frame and a little clutter
from fluxbox to look at while I watch my videos. Would the expand
option be the correct way to blackout that area?


Yes, expand creates a black window the size you specify and drops
your scaled video into at the coordinates you specify (or centers it
if you don't specify).
