HELP LCD TV Question?

Question

I just purchased a 42" lcd t.v.

Ivd owned it for about a week and I just my called my lcd t.v. manufacturers and asked them if watchingcertain shows in 4:3 ratio (the ones with black or grey borders on theright and left side of the screen) can cause image-burn of theso-called borders.

They told me it can in the long term.

Someshows are filmed that way and if you stretch them to 16:9 they lookawful.The other day when i spoke to them they told me if the bordersare "grey" and not "black"...then that means that part of the t.v. isstill active and won't cause burn in.

But today it's a different story.Do any of these people know what they are talking about?.What is the truth?.

Answer 1

Grey bars wil not burn in as bad as black bars.

Even if you do keep the television on a 4:3 show for about 2 hours a day, 5 times a week, it would take quite a few years for the burn-in to actually show up. Plasmas are much more susceptible to burn-in than LCDs. Just try not to keep it on a 4:3 show every second of every day of every year, or there WILL be some burn in.
