Getting full 1080p to a Sharp Aquos 42'' HD LCD TV
Okay, I've been struggling and struggling with this one for a good month or two and I have pretty much use up all my lifelines except the apple forums 🙂
I have a Sharp Aquos 42'' LCD HDTV that is 1080p capable, and has 2 HDMI inputs. I have been using my 17'' Powerbook G4 via a DVI > HDMI cable and it works great EXCEPT that it is displaying the desktop with about an inch black border around the entire screen. I have heard of trying to tweak the timing settings within a program SwitchResX, and have read some other threads about other people successfully being able to get a 1080p full screen with their Sharp Aquos (45'') as well. I don't know the exact settings I need for my particular TV and I was hoping to get some answers here.
sincerly,
Alex
