Description

I am using Kodi on a CRT TV and after adjusting the overscan, I am getting a border around the top and right of my visualizer in projectM.

Primarily I have it streaming music, and have a visualizer running while I'm working. I setup this machine primarily to make this TV somewhat useful as it came with my house and it's too heavy to take out of my basement.

As you can see from the first picture other elements are scaled properly like the clock, and the now playing information.

There is about an inch cut off from the top and 2 inches on the right that are blank.

Here is a copy of my debug log
kodi.log

Please let me know if there is any additional information needed.

Research direction

No source file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Begin by reproducing the visualizer on a CRT with overscan enabled, then use the linked Kodi debug log and screenshots to compare the visualizer bounds with the clock and now-playing overlay; done means the border no longer appears while those elements remain correctly positioned.
