Hello Forum,

I'm been long frustrated and figured I'd better reach out before I throw my Pi's.

For 3-Pi's 3B+

I've Video Calibrated, all look good through all screens until the move plays and there's a lot of overscan.
I've Re-Calibrated, reduced Refresh Rate, Re-Cal, in playing video settings adjusted the view mode (doesn't help), Re-Cal but the Calibration is same as System Re-Cal. 

All my TV's are Samsung Smart 4k's (55", 52", 43") and issue with all 3.

What's going on?

Turn off overscan on your TV's.

You probably want to know what OS am running. LibreElec, XBian and OSMC.
All 3-issues.
Have you also disabled overscan via the RPi's config.txt file..?
-> disable_overscan=1

I agree. Video Calibration should not be necessary on a late model TV, and I'll bet that your Samsungs are newer than mine. I disabled overscan to solve my problem.
