So here's an odd question, and forgive me it's answered somewhere I missed....is this issue present for ALL displays? Most notably, does it occur on the actual touchscreen sold by Pine64?
I'll likely just live with it, because I'm not sure that my main TV can adjust ONE HDMI input separately from the rest - - you would HOPE that it would, but I'm always amazed by how many features my very expensive TV does NOT have.
The Pine64 touchscreen uses its own special Android image. And Android is currently the only OS that supports the touchscreen. Hopefully this will change in the future. But my guess would be that this overscan thing is not an issue with the 1024 x 600 LCD touchscreen because the image is specifically designed with it in mind.
As for other TVs and monitors, I think the answer is basically the same as that regarding using DVI and VGA adapters. Some work and some don't.
My TV has the overscan issue and no way to fix it that I can find. Whereas my monitor displays everything just fine.
Wouldn't like to use the word 'random' exactly, but certain screens have no issue, others do.
Edit: my monitor lets me save settings on a device by device basis. My TV does not.
