Since I come from nvidia's "world" I have some problem configuring the tv out of my new Radeon 9800 Pro.
I installed the latest catalyst and connected with my TV using s-video. Everything seems to work ok but the fact is that in the TV the monitor does not fill the whole picture. Using the mouse you can move the display up/down and left/right.
Why is this, All I want is the Tv to be filled with the whole display. Is there any way to do it?
Thanks

Rightclick desktop > properties > Settings > Click on 2nd display (it should be there) and uncheck "Extend my windows desktop onto this monitor".

Also for overlay stuff which may appear black on the display(s) > hit Advanced under settings and goto Overlay tab > Clone Mode Options > set as needed.

Thanks for your reply communist. The "extend desktop" is not selected. But the display area in my TV is still big to fit the tv monitor. How can I change the TV's resolution to 800x600 and set it permanently there every time I activate the TV out?

Click the 2nd display, change your resolution and hit apply - that should work.
