Hi Brian,

This is probably a "feature" of your TV-card itself. Usually
they do not scale the picture to correspond to your resolution,
so at maximum you get PAL size (~700x~500). If you want a full
screen picture, you have to tell your X-server about that
resolution (800x600 also displays quite nicely), and then switch
to it by Ctrl-Alt-Keypad+ (or -). Xawtv even has an option to
switch to a given resolution automatically when going to
full-screen...

Have fun
