I wanted to use the Second Screen feature of my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 with my laptop. Both have 16:10 displays but the Tab S7 reports itself as a 16:9 FHD screen. The image sent to my tablet is then squashed, while showing black bars. Does anyone know any workaround for this issue until Samsung fixes this (hopefully)? Thanks.
