That’s because the OS is primarily designed for desktop, not living-room, use. Looking at my 40-inch TV from about 12 feet away, all the screen elements-from the the icons and the address bar to the actual Web pages-looked puny. Scaling the Chromebox’s resolution back to 720 was a necessary sacrifice to make icons and menu options legible.Īfter aligning the display, the layout still needed improvement. Fortunately, Chrome OS hides a similar “TV alignment” tool under Settings > Device > Display settings, letting me shrink the screen down to size. A lot of TVs do this for any device you plug in, but most set-top boxes and consoles build an alignment tool into the setup process. After setup, I ran into a problem that I’d fully expected: My Sharp TV was cropping out the edges of the desktop, so I could barely see the row of icons on the bottom of the screen.
