I had a question about the caller ID application that is installed with the tweak.sh script. It works, but my TV's overscan is such that I just see the bottom half of the display text when a call comes in.

Of course the sensible thing to do is the adjust the overscan on my TV, but I can't find a service manual that has the codes to do it, and don't want to risk screwing it up by trying even if I did. It's a one year old Sharp 27" cheapo from Wal-Mart. Has a nice picture at SD.

So, is there a way to mod the tivo Caller ID program so that it displays a few scan lines further down? As is, the text displays right at the top left and I need it just half a line further down so I can read it.

Open /var/hack/etc/out2osd.conf in joe.

Scroll down to this section:

# Line can have a value from 1 to 16
# Line Default: 1
# set line = 1


Remove the # from in front of "set line = 1" and change it to "set line = 2"


Then save by pressing CTRL+K then X.
If you make a mistake, press CTRL+C, answer yes to "lose changes," and start over.

Thanks drez! I had no idea it would be such a simple matter.
