Calibrating the image output

  • No idea which hardware device to play Kodi, but there should be no need to adjust Kodi to your TV.

    "Overscan" on a TV is a souvenir from the old CRT days. Every new LCD screen these days has an option to display a computer signal 1:1 on screen. You just have to go through your TV's manual to find that option.

    I'd guess that you only calibrated the 60Hz "desktop" refresh rate, and then Kodi switches to 50Hz (PAL) or 23.976Hz (DVD) for media playback. Kodi requires you to calibrate each refresh rate independently (which is annoying and dumb, but is how it works) so you need to switch the desktop to those modes and repeat the calibration process. See if you can change the TV to "Just Scan" or similar.. modern TVs shouldn't need calibration.

  • Solved that problem.

    I had set the HDMI input of the TV to PC and after switching to Unknown it works as desired.

    I wrongly thought that Raspi must be set to PC on the TV input side.
