I have my lcd television connected to my HiFi as the sound quality is so much better. The television has in its list of programs a number of radio channels eg magic, smooth radio etc. When I listen to these then the television screen shows the logo of the radio station. Can this cause image burn on the television screen? The operating procedures only state the risk of image burn when there is a static picture on the screen. It seems a bit of a contradiction to produce televisions with radio programmes which can then mark the screen. I hope someone on this site has some knowledge in this area and can make some suggestions.
Thank you

Does the TV have a screen saver option ? I would have thought the image would have to be there for a long time for burn to be a problem. As regards the issue of TV production, thats more to do with the network/TV/Radio channels rather than the TV manufacturers

It'll work out in the end!!!!


I didn't do it !! Nobody saw me do it !! You can't prove anything !!

I bought this television only yesterday. I will now look again to see if there is a screensaver option. Thank you for your suggestion.

Shouldn't happen on an LCD. It does happen on plasma screens.
I have HTPC attached to two LCD tellies. Neither have suffered image burn and the sometimes have the desktop showing for hours at a time when playing music.

Image burn happens on plasmas too. Not aware it can happen on LCDs.

Usually if the screen is vulnerable to it, the manufacturer designs in a screen saver for, for example, when listening to radio.

Thank you very much. I have been looking for a screensaver on the tv but there does not appear to be one. You have put my mind at rest and I will carry on enjoying the music.

Hey,
Newer plasma TV's have a feature called 'pixel shift'. This moves the image on screen by a few pixels thus preventing burn in.

If you have an LCD TV you have nothing to worry about.

Cheers,
Shaun.

I have just bought a new LED TV and it warns in the instructions about image burn. The guarantee jargon states image burn is not covered. Whether that is a blanket warning for all TV's or an indication that LED TV's can in fact suffer from it I wouldn't know. At 67 years of age I have had more TV's in my time than hot dinners and never burnt the screen yet

LCDs can get image burn. We have plenty of LCDs at work that have image burn from being left on the same image for hours on end. But LCD is much more resistant to image burn than other technologies and under normal use it should be many many years before you would actually notice any problems.

I think if the instructions say beware of image burn then it would be prudent to do so.

If you look closely at an LCD screen when it's turned off you can usually make out where text has been shown indicating that there is some sort of retention.

Plasma screens suffer too, best solution is to put on a channel that has a lot of different moving images on the screen, any old program will do but try and avoid ones that have the channel logo in the corner.
Static images are the problem, you should see ours after the wife has been watching snooker for a couple of hours, the ghost of the table stays for an hour or so till normal telly has wiped the `memory`
