I've started using a TV as a secondary display
My resolution is 1080p, but only about 980 of it is visible 100p of visual content seems to be behind the TV frame.
I'm wondering if there is a software that will 'zoom out' and bring the image back into frame (especially a software with low overhead)?
The trick, as suggested in a comment on this page, turned out to be to lower the resolution of both the MBP and the DK2. I set the MBP to 1920x1200 and the DK2 to 1600x900 and applied that change. Then I was able to set the MBP as the primary monitor and apply that successfully. After that I set both devices back to their native resolution again.
Interestingly enough, now the machine is back in the state it used to be in where I can freely switch the primary display back and forth between the MBP and DK2.
OK I feel stupid: the answer is to open the Intel HD Graphics Control Panel (right click the desktop and choose Intel Graphics Settings, then go to the Wireless Display section and increase the Picture Size to 100%. See screenshot below. You would think this would DEFAULT TO 100% (hello Intel???) but it was defaulted to 75%.

You need to look for a setting on your TV which will be called "Overscan" or something similar. You need to turn this off and you should be able to see the whole picture again.
