Why does my Note 2 chop off 20 pixels around the margin of the display? Answer: Overscan. Modern TVs have settings like, "HD Size" (Panasonic Viera), or Dot to Dot, or 'Just Scan' (LG), or 'Screen Fit' (Samsung), ... Sources:...

This is due to overscan. On older 'tube' TVs the image drawn was larger than the viewable screen size and the outside got cut off. For aesthetic reasons most modern TVs are programmed to do the same thing by default. Different manufacturers use different terminology for it but most should have a picture display mode option that will correct this and not stretch the image beyond the edge of your screen.

It's a display issue, not a DVD player issue. All you have to do is change the display mode on your HD television from 16 X 9 to 4:3. Look in your manual; your HDTV should have a menu item like "Picture", "Display" or "Aspect Ratio" which will let you choose between 16 X 9, 4:3 and a couple other options. What you'll see is the entire 4:3 image, with black on the left and right sides. The Samsung we just bought has a button on the remote that toggles between the aspect ratios, so you don't even have to access an on-screen menu. No need to hook up your old standard definiton DVD player! Hope this helps. It's a display issue, not a DVD player issue.

You have to match the model numbers on the back of the screens. The screen size and pixels may be the same, but there are several different model types. Without knowing that part, I would say don't buy it.

In short, no. In fact "dot-by-dot" is available only with a 1080i/p signal. That's not to say that SD pictures look bad at all, but this TV has a lot of settings so that you can tweak SD pictures. SD programming can be set to a regular 4:3 picture (with bars on the right & left) or stretched out to full screen in several ways.

You may be viewing in the full-screen mode which distorts things. Try using a different setting like actual size I believe.

Actually why would someone have an expensive wide screen and watch it at 4:3 is beyond me. It becomes very hard to see and it is like your TV has shrunk. Most recent flat screens will widen it without too much distortion.

On my two 55 inch Viera TVs I watch channels that seem mostly to be full screen: CSPAN, news and money channels, - but no movies or sports. The great grandkids watch cartoons when I let them. We used to get a 4x3 size, but I really do not notice if pictures are HD or not. I use Direct TV satellite and pictures are sharp on the Viera when you can find a decent program. I am told that break in is not the problem that it used to be with Plasma, and Panasonic seems to have a better maintenance record than some other makes, - important for seniors who keep their things for a long time.

i have 60D. I returned this item.Screen itself is NTSC SD 480 aspect. menu has Full, 16x9 and 4x3 afjustment. It didn't look good on the screen. On overscan mode, picture is slightly blown out and underscan size is too small.

Mine puts on the screen exactly what's on the TV. If it's HD, it fills the screen but,if not, it leaves black spaces all around the picture. I hope this helps but I don't think it answers your exact question.

@batista Your TV is probably using passive 3D which means that when you are in 3D mode, the image resolution is split in half. This is using active 3D, which buying as an add-on can cost you around $300 itself.

1920x1080 pixels is the HD resolution for all the modern TV screens. While writing this note I don't see why it might be not good being displaying text.

It's the AutoMotion technology. AutoMotion, regardless of how Samsung tries to sell it, is merely an effect and does not produce "true" 120Hz technology. It makes things look artificial. I always say it makes everything you watch look like a cheap soap-opera that was shot on video. Solution: turn off the AutoMotion permanently. And tweak your picture settings. Don't leave it on the factory Dynamic Mode setting. Seriously, this TV looks so much better when you customize your settings and turn off the AutoMotion.

Judging by what I can find on the internet, the Note is a little bigger than my Sprint Galaxy S2. So this screen cover would not go edge to edge on your Note screen. The cut-out on the top is on the left, and it looks like your Note cut-out would need to go to the right. I wouldn't go this route...

I think the sample I have outputs 16:9 on a one year old TV. There maybe a way to adjust this. For now I can only find a switch for number of pixels. I hope this helps.

dont u mean --- signal because that standard requires 1080 horizontal pixels. the tv has 1366 vertical so u must have made a typing errorraf

If I'm not mistaken, I believe you need to have an HDMI port on your monitor. Newer monitors will have this feature, usually found in the back of the monitor. And as long as your Note 2 has a USB hook up, you should be able to pull it off.

I do not believe so. The note2 is one of the largest screens available on a cell phone. My husband has the New Samsung Galaxy S4 and my screen is still bigger than his new phone.
