just need a little bit of help. i have a 32 inch 720p hdtv and im using it with my 13 inch macbook. i set it to native resolution but it doesnt seem to fit the tv. the fit is off to the left, leaving empty space at the bottom and the right. is there any way of adjusting the screen? cant seem to find a way to get this done. i could technically get work done, but its just annoying sometimes getting stuff from offscreen. thanks in advance.

The only thing I can suggest is to make sure your MacBook is set to display the HDTV at its native resolution. (which you state you are already doing)

Do you have the MacBook set to "mirror" the display and are you using the external HDTV by itself? (MacBook display off) If so, you may have to adjust the TV controls (if possible) each time.

Regards.

yeah. its set to native resolution and its set to mirror mode. the screen fit is off with and without the macbook display. the only time the hdtv fits is when its not set to mirror mode.
