        I have already tried to do that. Here are the lines of my config.txt for that purpose. Any mistakes in there?
        hdmi_force_hotplug=1
        hdmi_group=2
        hdmi_group=86
        display_rotate=3

          I have also tried to find out the actual resolution with & /opt/vc/bin/tvservice -s aand that’s 1920x1080. Maybe any chance to tell the pi to somehow reset the input of the hdmi port?

            To change the resolution, run the command sudo raspi-config , navigate to Advanced Options > Resolution, and choose an option. Tells your Pi an HDMI display is attached. See the Raspberry Pi documentation for more hdmi_mode options, and information on /boot/config.txt in general.

            hdmi_group=2
            hdmi_group=86

            you have two hdmi_group statements

            https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/config-txt/video.md

            u have exhausted my knowledge here… others have done this, a search here might help

              Don’t change the resolution, change the overscan setting in /boot/config.txt.

              In your case I assume you will have to play with
              overscan_right
              and
              overscan_bottom

              hope it helps, good luck!
