I've heard that this can also shorten it... would like a definitive answer myself to that one.

The PJ ideally needs to be situated towards the top of the screen and at the exact centre.
If you put it at an angle you get the effect you describe. This can be fixed in the PJ (keystone correction) but it makes picture quality worse - it's better to move the PJ so it doesn't occur.
The lens correction helps with positioning if you can't get the PJ central (that doesn't affect PQ).

It's automatic - the menu will display the format it's receiving.

Focus is quite sensitive - find something with sharp detail (eg. the Xbox live dashboard) and move the focus until it's as sharp as you can get it.

You need to use powerstrip to change your PC mode to 1280x720, then switch overscan off in the PJ. That should give you a 1:1 mapping - PC output looks outstanding when it's setup.
If you have a VGA->VGA cable it'll give a better picture than svideo.
