Trying to connect my PC to my tv but it’s not going as well as I thought.
I’ve got display port and VGA on the pc, TV has hdmi and VGA inputs.
If I use display port to hdmi then it works but I have to manually shrink the display so it doesn’t go off the edge of the screen. This works but often when Windows does updates and restarts it boots up with a blank screen and I have to unplug the displayport and plug it back in again for the image to come on the TV.
Nevermind I thought, I’ll use VGA, that must work better. Well it works but instead of wide-screen on the TV the image is just square. I can adjust the TV to wide manually but then things look a bit stretched.
What am I doing wrong, it’s 2019, surely it should be simple to plug a pc into a TV and it to scale the display automatically to the correct size!
