If your PC 640×480 images fill the screen, stretch them to 752×480 (or 736, or 768). This will make the images fill the video frame from the Amiga, w/out the unsightly black border in the overscan area. The Amiga's output at 480 vertical resolution is actually 2 240 line fields interlaced at video scan rates. These sizes will work on any frames. The Amiga's nominal resolution is 640×400, but for video, one uses an overscan mode which will be 736×480, 752×480, or for severe oversacn 768×482.
