The pixel is either on or off. There's no way to make half of the adjacent pixel on (and the other half of that pixel off). Having said that, you may be on the right track. I hadn't looked at your photo before, so sorry for that, but it indeed looks like your telly may be doing some scaling on the image. Check for overscan / underscan settings in the TV's menus and on the remote. The button for overscan may not be at all obvious on the remote from the icon that labels it - if you can't find a button on the remote that resolves this issue, or a overscan setting in the TV's menus then check the manual. Overscan would cause this symptom, and it is such a common feature, that IMO you shouldn't pst back here again until you've identified it on your TV and checked it. Stroller.
