Adjust overscan WITHOUT a second display being used
Hi,
I am one of the poor fools trying to get decent TV output via an GF4 MX440. I have one in my media center pc that I've had for a while now... I've decided again to try getting rid of the annoying black surround to anything displayed on my tv... and have the absolute latest drivers for it (the ones released on April 1st, which made me nervous!) And while there is now a PAL resolution to choose, and indeed yes it does remove the black borders, it does so with a LOT of overscan... I loose so much around the image. So much so that the desktop becomes unusable, and also it's a bit too much image from my videos for my liking. So, I've seen some stuff about using nView and Clone, and how you can adjust the size of the screen with that, but it always seems to assume that you have a monitor AND a TV hooked up, whereas I ONLY have a TV hooked up to the box. Other than using TVTool (I really refuse to have to PAY for functionality which should be included with the card to begin with), is there any way I can reduce the amount of overscan when switched to the PAL resolution, OR increase the size of the screen to remove the black borders when displaying 800x600? Thanks in advance if anyone can help. Simon |
