Its gonna be braaand new , delivered thursday, and Ive 72 hours till play offs, and a week till superbowl. I am horrified of image retaintion after all the posts here but most are old. hows this TV gonna fair? must I buy a burn in disc? will 24 hours f full screen Finding Nemo gonna do the job? will my THX optimizor on the menu of the Incredibles really function as a burn in prevention tool? This Plasmas only gonna be new once and man was its spendy! Please advise, what do I do as soon as I get it?! aiiieeeee! -R.L.Shakle
Plasmas take 100-200 hours to break-in. The most important things during that time are no black bars and no static images. It's also recommended to keep contrast at half and brightness and sharpness as low as possible.
