I have set that up.

It looks pretty good.

Here are some things that I noticed:

#1: When adjusting the viewport it does not have a lower limit, if you
go below 0 then the limit rolls over to 65535, also if you save a viewport
of 0 and reboot, on reboot it crashes at "creating colortest" and continues
to restart.   Recovery requires removing the settings file and rebooting.

#2: If you set the viewport too small then it crashes at "creating mythtv
browers" (I only moved the left and right in quite a ways), so we probably 
should put limits in the set viewport area.

#3: The settings I am using are:
69, 23, 75, 65

Settings them +60 off of those settings (all around) results in things
working but exceeding the bottom of the viewport, I might suggest limiting the 
viewport settings to +20 or +40 off of my settings which should easily cover the
worst TV issues, though +60 appears to not crash anything, and also limit the 
bottom of the settings to be at least 1.
