Can you get it to show 1360x768 (standard resolution in windows) ?
If i have understod you correcly you problem is to make use all of the 1366 pixels...
There are a tool that is called powerstrip there you can make you own resolution, maybe it could be a solution for you.
In my case i do not care if there are 3 pixels on each side, i dont see them anyway.

Good luck

You will find that with most TV's there is no way to get a exact 1:1 pixelmapping, whatever graphics card you use. For example, even though I can set the panel resolution on my Nvidia card, my lcd (toshiba 32c3030) will still do some internal processing and scaling of the image, thus resulting in a non 1:1 pixelmap.

i've used both 1360, 1366 and 1368 with no good results at all... I've read about people who made it, but i haven't found out how =S

it's a samsung-panel in it, witch IS capable to view 1:1 pixmap...

I think i have the same problem as you petzlux, there's some kind of scaling in it, that i don't know how to turn off =(

On my samsung i have to use D-SUB to make the picture perfect. If i use DVI it scale it up to 1080 and down again, and the result is terrible. But with the D-SUB cable it is perfect.

Try this site: http://pixelmapping.wikispaces.com/. Here's a lot of info about 1:1 pixelmapping. Also a list wich models do pixelmapping and wich don't.

I have an LG 37LC2R wich does 1:1 pixelmapping over HDMI (lucky me). My Nvidia (7100GS) is set to 1386x786 (1366 won't do becouse you can not devide 1366 by 8). So im just loosing 2 pixels, one on the left and one on the right.

Did use powerstrip but in the end i realised i didn't need it becouse nvidia supports it right out of the box.

Success
