<title>Screen cut off edges</title>
<description> Hi,

I&amp;#039;m having a problem with all the homebrew I&amp;#039;ve been making, I am using GRRLIB and some of the bottom and top of the screen is cut off. I don&amp;#039;t know why but a month ago this didn&amp;#039;t happen but I would have a black rectangle at the bottom of my screen (which was fine) but now the top and bottom of the screen is being cut off.</description><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,59156,59156#msg-59156</link><lastBuildDate>Wed, 16 Sep 2026 15:08:27 +0200</lastBuildDate>

The BBC recommends keeping a margin of 5 percent on each side.</div></blockquote>]]></description>

But if you release this homebrew, are you going to suggest to your users to change their Wii settings to 50Hz? Sounds pretty sloppy to me...]]></description>

Any non-digital signal may be overscanned, depending on your TV. I have two that do none, and one that chops a fair bit off all 4 sides. The best way to compensate is to not place anything important in the overscan area. A less elegant solution would be to set up your view area to a smaller area (eg: 456x678 instead of 480x720) and center the image. Take your pick.]]></description>

<title>Re: Screen cut off edges</title><link>http://forum.wiibrew.org/read.php?11,59156,59159#msg-59159</link><description><![CDATA[ are you PAL or NTSC? I have this issue as well if i place the image at 0,0 so all my backgrounds are shrunk from 640 x 480 to 95% that size and then placed at about 20,14 (don&#039;t remember the exact point).<br /><br />BUt when i send it to my graphics guy (a PAL user) he see&#039;s space at the top and left. As it turns out... (0,0) works great for him, but does the same thing you are seeing to mine... it cuts off some stuff.<br /><br />So, looking to use a switch... (If PAL, place at 0,0, if NTSC, place at 20,14)<br /><br />I&#039;ve had this problem since i last updated GRRLIB ( a while ago) but i&#039;m not sure if it was there before (didn&#039;t notice/do too much full screen background stuff.)]]></description>
