[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1246827, member: 24098"] Just to expand upon this - if it's set to mirror the built-in display, then it will resort to the lowest common denominator (i.e. the native resolution of the Mac's built-in display). If you set it to act as an extension, then it should default to the correct native resolution automatically. If it does not, it should allow you to force it through the 'Displays' control panel. Now, if you were to close the lid and plug in the external display (i.e. only use the external) then it should work without any fuss at all (at least on the Acer - Samdung TVs are notoriously fickle).
