First things first: I spent 30 minutes figuring out why over/under looked crappy. It turnes out (surprise) that it strongly relies on the resolution beeing pixel perfect. I somehow had to discover that the TV setting "Auto" and "16:9" are stupid (and setting gfx driver in windows to over/underscan even more so) and that the correct setting for LG TV is "Just Scan"! After that (ans after resetting the gfx settings) I now have the perfect resolution in XBMC resulting the GUI in 3D mode to be not at all 3D (which is a good thing because now the lines for left and right eye are strictly over each other) Huge success!
It is always better to fix over/under scan on the TV than by adjusting either the graphics drivers or the XBMC video calibration. In fact, IMHO the calibration thing should have a great big warning "WARNING Do NOT do this unless you have exhausted every option to turn overscan off on your TV/monitor."
It has always been important, but is far more so now with 3D.
