One specific adapter leads to overscan

I have two identical LG Smart TVs as well as two USB‑C Digital AV Multiport Adapters connected to my MacBook Pro via HDMI. Both using the same HDMI-ports on the TVs.


One of the adapters leads to overscan (When I switch the adapters and leave everything else the same the overscan switches too). Also, they result in slightly different colors.


I tried resetting both TVs to factory settings and clearing PRAM. System preferences seem identical.


How do I fix this?



MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.1
