Overscan Test

A crisp 1-pixel grid that should touch every edge of the display, with circles in the center and corners. Use it when a laptop on a TV or external monitor crops or stretches the image — adjust picture size, GPU scaling, or aspect ratio until the full grid and all corner circles are visible.

What you can use it for

  • Fix TV overscan when mirroring a laptop
  • Verify GPU scaling on ultrawide monitors
  • Align a projector image to the screen edges
  • Check if fullscreen apps are truly edge-to-edge

How it works

  1. 1. Customize. Open the Customize panel to set text, colors, theme, and animation speed to your liking.
  2. 2. Go fullscreen. Click Fullscreen for an immersive, distraction-free display on any screen.
  3. 3. Done. No login, no install, nothing to download — it runs instantly in your browser and your settings are remembered.

Frequently asked questions

What is overscan?+

Overscan crops a few pixels off each edge of the image — common on TVs. Underscan leaves a border. This grid shows exactly how much of the signal is visible.

How do I fix cropping?+

On TVs, set Picture Size to 'Just Scan' or 'Screen Fit'. On GPUs, set scaling to 'No scaling' or adjust the aspect ratio in AMD/NVIDIA/Intel control panels.
