Guide overscan - cuts off channel number

Post by djhodny »

I have two Roku Streambars, one on a Samsung LCD TV the other on an LG LCD TV. Both have the same problem. The Guide seems to have a slight "overscan" issue where the first two digit positions of the channel are cut off. For example "4.1" will display as "1", 4.2 displays as "2", etc. I also have a Roku Premier on an LG OLED which does not exhibit the problem. This scan issue does not show up in any other programming on other HDHomeRun screens nor with any other programming we watch (like Sling, Curiosity Paramount+, VSEE box channel guide...). Is there any setting I'm not aware of that would correct this?

Are you sure it's not the TV doing overscan? I don't know what term LG uses, but on my old Samsung, I use the P.SIZE button on the remote to set to Screen Fit to eliminate overscan.
