The Image is cropped on the bottom and top

Some displays use what is called overscan. This can be seen in TVs and not
so much on Monitors. It causes the image to be missing on the edges, such
that you cannot see them displayed.
Some higher end displays allow you to disable the overscan. Check your
manual for this feature.

Most TVs have a mode that allows you to adjust the image as well. These are
options like Normal, Wide, Zoom, or Fit. Normal seems to be the best option
as it does not chop of the edges. The other ones will crop of the edges.
You may also try the Fit option. Consult your manual for these options.
