when sharing by cable from macair to smart tv, the macair display becomes very small from my mac air M1 i have a cable connection to my Samsung smart tv. However, when i do that the display on my macair becomes too small. I presume it is taking the 55 inch resolution and trying to use the same resolution on a 13 inch screen hence why i can barely see the pointer or items on the mac air/ of course in settings i can see that the large screen has been selected and it appears.. but the writing drops are miniscule hence can. not make changes Any ideas please thanks in advnce

Why won't Apple fix the issues with it's HDMI port? The HDMI port on the mac mini is very flaky. You may get it to work by jumping through a bunch of hoops, but it will be flaky and randomly stop working. Apple has known about this issue for over 5 years. There are hundreds of posts about this, and yet it never gets fixed. What do we have to do to get this fixed?

Maybe you have to change the resolution to match your external display's resolution.
