The actual version of Overscan is called AutoSwitch-OverScan because you can
configurate it to switch from the overscan-res. to the standard-res. if
programs are to be started which do not run with non-standard-resolutions.
There aren't any incompatibilities. In Germany AS-OverScan costs DM 120.

So long,
