Do you have overscan problems like i do?
My Panasonic TX-P50VT30Y does not have the tools to fix this.

It has to be done in the OS. Tried this:

xrandr --output HDMI1 --transform 1.05,0,-35,0,1.05,-19,0,0,1

and it helped. and fiddled with those numbers to get the best result. But its not prefekt.
The bar in the top is to wide to show the clock for example.

Maybe there are some tools within the latest Intel drivers that can help.

Ubuntu 14.04 recognizes the TV as a 32" panasonic...
Pooking arround with google gave this issue a long history.

But nobody seems to have a good solution, or i did not find it yet....

I will get back here if i find the solution.

I had the same problem with my Panasonic TV. I fixed it on the TV by pressing the Menu button on the TV remote, going into Picture, VIewing Mode, and setting it to THX. When I did this the screen size on XBMC was perfect with no adjustment required. Note that this setting is unique to each AV input, so making this change on the XBMC HDMI input will not affect your TV or other HDMI inputs.

Note that you could also change the screen size in XBMC by going to System, System, Video Output, Video calibration and then adjust the screen size to match your TV. .

Setting the Panasonic TV Viewing Mode to THX is a better solution since this will fix the screen size for the boot menu, ChromeOS, OpenELEC and XBMC.
