Projection Size

I donÂ´t know if this is some kind of stupid question. Anyway....
I have noticed that the screen projected through resolume is somewhat reduced, if compared to a direct DVD output.
Better explaining... after setting up the projector, any DVD projection fills the projection area completely. My notebook projection and/or Resolume projection does not. ThereÂ´s a small gap, like 2% to 5% reduction.
Is this Resolume? My computer? Is this regular stuff?
I actually donÂ´t care, but I there were times when matching / filling the total of the projection area was desired.

tks in advance,

Paulo

hi,
it is a feature called overscan in your computers graphic card settings.
switch it on.

CouldnÂ´t find anything related to overscan in the graphic card settings.
By the way.. ATI RADEON XPress 200 Series

Most standard drivers do not show the overscan options so you could try and install the omega drivers for your ati radeon, they unlock all kinds of good stuff, including overscan.

On the standard ATI drivers, sometimes the Overscan mode is labelled as Video mode.

Right-click on the desktop, display properties, settings, advanced, look for the monitors tab, select your TV output, look for the "video" button.

On newer versions of the ATI driver, look for the monitors setting in the ATI control center.
