Plasma screen burn

It will go away. I have this kind of thing all the time after playing Xbox, I can still see the health bar etc. But it goes away after a few hours.

Oh, your tv is skew, straiten it out now!

Have you run the pixel shift or that scrolling white screen....? That normally helps clears it sometimes though I've never had issues with my 59" Sammy.

White Screen option NOT SCROLLING. Select the option in screen burn protection and leave it for min 20 mins to several hours. Works.
You'll notice they do this at Rock concerts to their screens- White burn off all the images.
 
Only option left is to spend 1/100th of your wallpaper and bulkhead budget on a new TV. Maybe use some spare change lying around in your wallet and buy a new TV. Or an IMAX projector.

Haha.
The TV cost more than the wallpaper.
...but I'd rather watch the TV than look at the wallpaper.

There is only an option for scrolling bars under screen burn protection option.

I did this for 2 hours yesterday but no joy :(

Why...? Other than power consumption issues I alwasy leave mine on stanby....do you unplug at the wall...?
 
Do you have the power saving systems on so it switches itself off when not being used?

Or is it left on 24/7 on this channel?

I also see absolutely nothing on your pictures.

No mine has a separate switch. Just something I've heard from someone, that some screens isn't completely off when on standby. So I'm thinking of anti-burn-ins.
In any case, I switch of to save power.

Why? If its on standby the panel itself is completely off.

Plugging it out or leaving it on standby will make absolutely no difference.

If it's not completely off then you would still see luminance coming from it in the dark.

I think you should seriously rethink this "something" and "someone".
 
Surprised some of you can't see that. Either whatever screen you're viewing this on isn't that great or your eyes just aren't as discerning.

Perhaps the same way some can't see the "dirty screen effect".
 
Update.

I did the scrolling bar thing at lowest cell light /brightness and left it overnight.

Made absolutely no difference. :(

You're supposed to put it on the brightest setting, you're trying to burn the phosphors on the rest of the screen to a level closer to the part showing the image. Low brightness will do squat.

Also try the white screen thing. Samsung TVs don't have that built in as far as I know but just attach a PC and make a white screen in MS Paint or something.
