Okay do you mean, the left and right sides or the top and bottom of your screen?

Instead of resolution, sounds like overscan. Each set has their own nuances with overscan. Some/most have settings for that. If you have any Sony BD's or can get some test patterns you can see how much your sets has overscan. (To get to it on a Sony BD, at the menu hit "7669" then "Menu").

Try seeing if the set has a setting for "Unscaled" or "Pure" or something of that sort, and that should take care of it. Also make sure you're not zooming in or anything like that.

press triangle on the ps3 remote while watching the movie and select the zoom option! make sure you are not zoomed in. Also does your tv have a zoom feature? if so again make sure you are not zoomed in
