Simply zoom the video a bit and it will fall outside of the visible area. In case you can receive this channel: HD-Test ARD ZDF;IRT:11361:hC23M5O35S1:S19.2E:22000:6410=27:6420=deu;6421=deu,6422=Ori:6430:0:11140:1:1011:0 you'll see marks indicating overscan areas at 1 %, 2 %, 3 %, 4 % and 5 % of the image.
