Comment(by Alex Halovanic <halovanic at gmail.com>):

 I've noticed the same thing with Livetv, recordings, and videos.  Also,
 the Program Finder has the exact same problem.  This is with 1920x1080
 video playback, and an underscanned GUI of about 100 pixels less each side
 + x,y offsetting to center it.

 I've created a hack here to try to resize/position the Guide & Finder when
 they're called from watching a video, but not when called from the main
 menu.  The patch leaves the default (correct) behavior when the 'use gui
 size for tv playback' option is enabled.  One edge case that I can't
 figure out how to correct for is when the Finder is called from the Guide,
 and vice versa; not without messing it up when used in the main menu.
 Also, I have no idea if this works, or breaks things when using randr to
 change resolutions, because randr seems to mess up things in strange ways
 already for me.  Any suggestions at all are welcome as I've never messed
 about with this code before today and I'm probably going about it all
 wrong.
