      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!
