Screen not set back to normal after using Hulu fullscreen #110

What steps will reproduce the problem?
Sometimes when I quite Front Row after watching Hulu through understudy,
the screen is still "zoomed" so that I can't see the edges of the desktop
(including menu bar & dock).
I noticed that when I watch Hulu through Understudy that the screen view is
of a web browser without menu bars - like Hulu is just zooming in on a web
browser so menu items are not visible. Well it's like that view is not
getting reset to normal.
This problem first appeared while I was running the 0.67 version but now
I'm using version 0.7 and the issue persists.

What is the expected output or result?
View entire desktop.

What do you see instead?
Cropped/zoomed-in view of desktop.

Please provide any additional information below, including any relevant
URLs.
When the computer is in this state:
* I can move the mouse to the edges of the desktop that I can't see - so I
can click menus and dock icons even though I can't see that part of the
desktop.
* A screen capture image is of the entire desktop.
* I can view the entire desktop through screen sharing.
* Zoom feature of the Accessibility section of system prefs is OFF.
* Toggling to different display resolutions and back does not fix it.
* Restarting computer does not fix it.
* Shutting down and turning back on does not fix it.
* I don't know what fixes it - it just reverts back to normal sometimes
when I least expect it, but soon after this problem will resurface.

Not certain that Full screen is related - I just always watch Hulu in full 
screen.

I'm assuming that you're not using the Hulu Desktop player, let me know if 
that's
incorrect.

Is the screen only cropped at the top & bottom, or also on the sides?
What is your normal screen resolution?
If you open System Preferences -> Universal Access is the "Zoom" option enabled 
(or
might it have been at some point)?

(sorry for the long delay getting following up on this)

I am now using Hulu Desktop.
Zoom is Not enabled.
I discovered that if I go to System Preferences > Monitors > Options and change 
my
resolution and un-check "overscan" then the screen fits perfectly again.
So you can ignore this report.
Before I was using Hulu Desktop, Understudy used to mess with my monitor 
resolution
every time I would enter full-screen mode.
