ps3.. No, LCD image burn! Help please! - Blu-ray Forum

PS2king · 09-05-2008, 06:21 AM

So i recently noticed that during DVD/BD playback, images will slightly burn into my HDTV. The burn is very fast and usually only happens during black transitions. It's really apparent during things like the I Am Legend trailer or the new GofW 3 trailer. It also happened while I was playing DMC4. It appears as if there is a almost transparent "blanket" of some sort across the image. I'm running through 720p and it's not m tv or hdmi cable cause i've compared with my roommates ps3 and he has no issues. Has anyone had any similar problems?? Please any feedback will be helpful. Thanks

plasma tv?

I used to have a similar effect on my Samsung 26" LCD, on dark scenes the previous image would appear to be on screen for a little bit (from both movies and games). I put it down to the TV as the issue doesn't occur on my Samsung 40" LCD

turn the brightness down on your monitor, i used to have it with my LCD, its image retention, not burn in

This is not a burn, it is image retention as mattym mentioned. It is because the liquid crystals have a response time that is slightly slower than desired so when you go from one color to another of very high contrast (white moving over black) the image will be retained for a fraction of a second. It is also known as ghosting.

The same thing is responsible for the small amount of motion blur that can be seen on LCD tv's. It is just a trait of that type of tv. Only really noticable on white/black transitions.

This is definitely NOT PS3 related.

It's your TV.
