Fuzzy display

I have just booted the Raspi up for the first time. Had no problems except that the display icons are a little fuzzy. It is connected to a small TV via the HDMI cable and is at 1080. I have looked for a setting to change it but cannot find anything. I have never had a problem with this TV before and it is frequently used with a PS3 game machine. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Brian

According to the manual:
http://documents.knowhow.com/TV-Home%20 ... DVDP10.pdf
you are a 720p TV, so google how to tell the rpi to use 720p instead of 1080p.

Thanks for that. I will have a look around.

It's sold as a 720p TV but, as always seems to be the case, it isn't one.
According to page 55 of the manual it's a 1366x768 panel, yet according to page 54 it doesn't support this as an input resolution. You're never going to get a pin-sharp image out of it whatever you do as everything will always be rescaled. The best you'll ever achieve is a compromise I'm afraid.

Thanks for your input (no pun intended). I might get it connected to a 'proper' monitor.
