Help HDMI out help!

Hi. I just got my cable for HDMI out for my Nexus. It works great but doesn't quite format right on my TV. The screen is just a little too big on my TV, with parts of the edge buttons getting cut off. How do I make my Nexus fit perfectly on my TV? Do I change something on my TV or my Nexuz? Thanks!

Most tv's with hdmi input will have an "adjust mode" where you can set the horizontal and vertical alignment.

I haven't seen anything on the SGN, but I'm still waiting for my $7.99 adapter to be delivered next week.
 
Well, I looked through all of my settings on two of my HD TVs, and I can't adjust much size-wise. Anyone having any luck with HDMI out formatting right?
 
I think mine was a little over sized too, on the home screen, but I didn't really notice as I went into my movies. The movies fit perfectly on the screen and look fantastic.
Very happy to have this feature on the GNex.
 
I had this issue when I first tried my MHL cable. The problem is the TV, go into your settings or check for a button on your remote that adjusts the screen size. On my TV there is a button on the remote that toggles between 16:9, 4:3, Zoom, and Auto Scan.
Auto Scan makes the picture fit perfectly. Look to see if your TV has something similar to this.
