    SPDIF Optical Audio Cord not working.


    Click the "Menu" button. A sidebar menu appears on the left-hand side of the television screen.

    Press the up arrow on the remote control to highlight the "Wide" option on the menu. Press the center "OK" button on the remote's directional keypad.

    Use the left or right arrow keys to move to the "Wide." Press the "OK" button again to select this screen aspect viewing option. Wide mode is the only screen aspect option that turns off the overscan feature, which usually displays a set of black boxes on
    the top and bottom or right and left sides of a picture.

    how about that ?

    The "Wide" option is locked, it is set to wide but the screen is still to big to fit

    It is set to wide, it is locked so I couldn't change it to anything else, but the video the xbox is producing is still to big to fit my tv

    The option is set to wide but it seems to be locked so I couldn't possibly change it, the xbox is producing a video that is too big for my tv

    Having taken a good look around there doesn't actually appear to be a solution as the Vizio just doesn't have the options to correctly disable overscan. Sorry but it's either a case of live with the overscan using HDMI, use the DVI option on the Xbox and
    use the optical audio cable connected to an external audio device or purchase a newer tv that will cope better with the Xbox One's lack of any settings regarding overscan.

    Maybe even drop the Tv resolution settings down to 720p in the display options on the Xbox, if you're trying to force it at 1080p that can cause some issues.

    The thing is that my tv isn't big enough for the default xbox aspect ratio so it cuts edges off... I wish I could use HDMI audio but not being able to see edges of the screen bothers me

    ok, the optical audio connection on Tv's is an output only in which case what you're trying isn't going to work, you need to connect the optical audio out on the Xbox to an amp or av/receiver etc. I would stick with HDMI audio to be honest.
