Q: Fullscreen won't work.

Hello, I'm having some issues with the fullscreen.

 

Desktop shows approximately 2/3 of the TV screen size.


I've gone through the settings but still no joy.

    Hey Interactiveboy,

     

    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

     

    Check the resolution matching option on your Mac when you mirror to an HDTV wirelessly with Apple TV.

    Resolution matching modes

    You can choose between two desktop resolution matching modes that let you select which display will have the best image. When AirPlay Mirroring is turned on, select an option under "Match Desktop Size To:" in the AirPlay Mirroring menu extra.

    • Match Desktop Size To: This Mac
      AirPlay Mirroring scales the contents of the desktop to fit on the Apple TV, leaving the resolution of your Mac's display unchanged. Use this setting for the sharpest image on your Mac's display. Depending on your Mac model, the resulting image may not fill the HDTV screen.

     

     

    Have a nice day,

    Mario
