Mac mini help: changing screen resolution

[chris_p]

Got my mac mini, and I'm running it through my 46' panasonic plasma.

The pixel dimensions aren't right, cutting the top and bottom off (the sides slightly too).

Apparently this can be changed using switchresx, but tbh its a nightmare, no idea with it really.

Can anyone help? Would anyone know what the optimum pixel dimensions for a screen like mine?

Cheers.

you sure it isn't the tv?

as i've got my pc connected to my 40" lcd and i have to put it in just scan mode rather than 16:9

I had this problem when i plugged mine in to a 42" sony. It was plugged in by a standard vga cable but then bought a DVi - HD cable this kinda solved it but still had a black outline about 3mm thick. Other than that i dont know maybe something on the TV

It's going from a mini dvi to hdmi connection.

The tv only has preset resolutions, none of which are great!

Anyone know?

Your TV is probably overscanning the image.
