LCD televisions don’t get screen burn… if its a cheap plasma, then you shouldn’t play video games on it.

its not screen burn but tired pixels. you can get DVD’s that play a pixel moving graphic that exercises these pixels and corrects the shadow!!

LCD tvs do not get screen burn.
Only crt tvs and plasma tvs suffer this problem.
Screen burn happens when part of the display is bright and static for long periods.
Screen burn is permanent reducing brightness and contrast will help stop future damage.

You are correct – LCD televisions DO suffer from screen burn.
I have several friends who have been horrified to find screen burn on their LCD televisions, too. Especially as they had believed the lie that “LCDs don’t get screen burn”. Sad, but true.
I’m sorry I can’t help with your situation. But you are right about screen burn!!

That’s not screen burn, it’s image retention. Screen burn only happens with CRT’s and Plasma’s.
You should be proud – this is pretty rare with an LCD TV. The way they produce an image is to twist or relax the liquid crystal pixels to let light through or block it out. When you have the same image up there for a long period of time you have the same voltage running through those pixels and the crystals might get used to being in that open state.
This might sound drastic, but if you leave the TV off for a long time the problem should fade or go away. Could be a weekend. Could be a couple of weeks!
Step 2 – turn down your contrast!!!

YES ! could be. IT DEAD PIXELS or STUCK PIXELS from LCD Display * not burn in. but sometings like that *http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_pixel
because Buyer brand like Bush use Low Quality LCD Display.
Bush TV is manufactures in China by small TV maker. because of prices,use only low Quality Taiwan.China made LCD display Panel or select only grade B type display panel from Korea LG display.
any things can happened.
you paid for what you get. NEXT TV. go for Sony.Samsung.Sharp.LG.Panasonic.Toshiba . you never get such issue ( less that 0.5 % risk ).
No way for Buyer brand TV ( Bush do not made TV by OWN ) to have less trouble. prices vs quality issue !
