Mac Mini Help Display

[cisco697]

So I just bought my new mac mini 2.53 C2D. And I love it! I have eye tv 3 hooked up and it runs flawless. I tested it all out with my imac to make sure that my wife could use it and would ok the purchase.

The only thing I am kinda sad about is the fact that the display does not fill the screen without overscan on. But if I have overscan on the top bar does not show.

I new about this with my imac but was reassured it was because my imac was 16X10 and that the mac mini would not have that problem. I have a samsung DLP that only does 720p which I am fine with.

Any Ideas to fill the screen? Also 1080i is an option but the screen looks shakey????

Is the display filled with the iMac?

Which Samsung are you using?

Which port on the mini (miniDVI or miniDP) to which connector on the Samsung?
