Will Xbox burn-in my tv?

We are about to by a tv in a week and were really looking at this sony 51 inch HD-ready TV http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Sony.../sem/rpsm/oid/97048/rpem/ccd/productDetail.do thats what it looks like but im wondering? will the TV burn-in if i play my xbox on it? plzz tell me if u have it or kno anything about it.


Thnx

 

its a projection tv so yes i have one to but it only does that if you pause the game for a while

 

what is burn in? sorry to intrude on your thread, but curious

 

I thinks plasmas and projection tv's only right?? I have a 35in Lcd but I haven't played any Xbox games on it yet. Does anybody know about burn in on LCD's??

 

Wow, I'd rather stick to a regular TV now that I know this. I didn't know having a TV would be like having a baby.. (I just read about plasma screens and the causes of burn in and what not.. and the ways to prevent it.. way too much work/worry for a television)

It's a shame, because I wanted to buy a widescreen soon..

 

if it's rear projection. forget it.

pause the game for more than 5 minutes and it'll burn the phosphor

 

yea like i said project and lcd tvs will burn in your tv when you pause the game. lcd tvs are worse within 3 years or a little later they will burn there selves

 

DLP tvs don't burn in. Take a look at the Samsungs. They have 46 and 51" beauties.

 

quote from bestbuy, are they lieng then?

 

Correct 2sweet!! It's plasmas not LCD's!! Both my computer lcd's I leave running all day and night and they are rock solid. I have a 35, 18, and 17 inch lcd. The 2 smaller lcd's i've had for about 3 years now and they stil keep on ticking. I prefer Lcd over Plasma.

 

guys, any Tv will eventually get a picture burnt into it if you keep displaying the same image for long enough. Buy a plasma or rear projection if ya want. Just don't be stupid and pause the game for hours on end with the tv turned on. If you pause the game... turn the tv off.

 

Then why do cable channels have logos on the corner of their screens? Bastards, trying to ruin my TV.

 

Burn-in only happens to CRT screens. The phospher coating on the inside wall of the CRT screen gets permanently marked with the image on the screen. LCD and plasma do not use phospher anywhere, so they do not burn in. Problem with LCD is dead-spot; it can be permenent white, black, red, green, or blue on certain pixels or lines of pixels.

 

I can absolutely guarantee you that any TV/Monitor/whatever can be burnt in. A couple of years ago I used to service ATM's and I have seen every kind of TV screen and monitor burnt in. LCD, plasma, normal tv's, rear projection... They can all be burnt in if you are irresponsible and display the same picture for hours on end.

 

well know im really confused cuzz i asked this guy at sears and he said that tv is a lcd rear projection and it does not burn in because lcd( liquid crystal display) does not burn in so im confused.
PEACE OUT!!!!

 

That's what bestbuy and everyone else says, LCD's are basically immune to burn in.

 

Although lcd's can be burnt in they are definately long lasting if treated properly. But damn they are expensive. Well they are in Australia.
