My samsung 40'' LCD..?

Question

why does my LCD tv show up 'GHOSTING' red/burgundy coloured pixels? i.e. when there is a sky or ocen scene, there appears to be red/burgundy discolouration.

is it time to replace?

Answer 1

This happened to my LCD tv, i took it back to the shop, and they refused to fix it because apparantly it's a common fault with LCD's. They will only fix it if there are over 4 pixels gone in it generally.

Answer 2

Replace?  A 40" should still be under warranty or close to it.

Is the discoloration inside of the area ?  This is probably what we term solarization.  There is a chance that the display panel is defective but most times the digital main would fix this problem.  Question is for how much.  Call local shop with model number.

Answer 3

Not sure mine does the same I thought it may be down to the fact Im not using a HD source to get the most out of my HD TV.
