SVCD size on tv

I use Premiere + CCE + Tmpeg + nero. everything seems to go fine until I watch my SVCD on DVD player (SONY). It looks like my TV screen is too small!! the pictures I see are slightly cut on each of the four sides (1-2% I guess) I tried to set different resolutions from premiere, but it does not work. Any suggestion?
Thanks a lot guys!!

That's normal. It's called overscan.

http://nicolep.digitalrice.com/tv/glossary.htm

I quote:

Overscan

The percentage of picture lost due to the horizontal and vertical edges being outside the viewable area of the TV screen. Overscan was introduced into sets to hide the fluctuation in picture size due to unstable voltage as well as to hide interference in broadcast material. Manufacturers conveniently use overscan when the quality of the extreme edges of the image is less than perfect. Most TVs come with an overscan setting of about 10%. The optimum is between 3% and 5% for watching material from a variety of sources.

Rsize the picture are a bit and add black borders to fill the SVCD resolution. I normally use a 16 pixels black border around the actual image. This will "zoom out" to make you see more of the picture.

a program called FitCD can help you with the resizing.
