Trying to output to a Samsung 40" LCD TV correctly.
Problem:
I have hooked my macbook up to my Sony 40" LCD TV model LN-S4041D via an apple (Mini-DVI to DVI adapter) and then a (DVI to HDMI cable). My TV does not have a DVI input just HDMI and all of the other analog inputs. When I hook it up my i get an output on the screen but it is not mapping pixel by pixel to the TV's exact resolution. This is causing there to be a black bar all the way around about 2" wide (top, bottom, left and right). The tv's native resolution PC is (1360x768). Is there any way I can get the macbook to output this correctly. I have tried using DisplayConfigX and creating a custom resolution and when I try using that resolution my TV doesn't work at all. It can't find an appropriate signal from the macbook. I am building a Home Theatre PC and am planning on using a mac-mini or ITV when it is released but I would like to use my macbook in the meantime. Please Help!!!!
