If the television is off, there cannot be a burn-in, since the phosphors / cells are not glowing.

What causes a burn in on a plasma television?

If a plasma television is paused too long this can cause a burn. Other reasons are static images showing for too long, gaming and circuits that fail. If one watches a station like CNN for 24 hours, this can also cause a burn.


Your Wii made your tv look like its burnt?

That is a result of you leaving the game on without playing it. The still image of the paused game has caused the image to be burnt into the glass. Never leave your game system on while nothing is moving. This is the cause of your problem. Ways to prevent this problem * Turn off your game system when you arn't playing it. * Change the channel. (The television won't be showing a still image) * Turn on the "Screen Burn-In Reduction" option. (Wii options-Wii Settings-Screen-Screen Burn-in-Reduction-On) This will dim the screen if no buttons are pressed or if the remote is not shooken in a set amount of time and will turn off when a button is pressed or if you shake the remote. The lights in the tv will be dimmer and be less likely to burn your television screen. * Turn the television off when you leave the room. (Just don't forget that your Nintendo Wii is still running) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Will playing wii on your flat screen damage the TV in any way?

Normal gameplay shouldn't damage your TV, unless you leave the game paused with a static image on the screen for a long time. If you need to pause the game for a long time, turn the TV off.

Image burn-in on cheap plasma TVs?

Burn-in isn't really an issue in most plasma TVs anymore. If you stick with name brands, such as Samsung, even the cheaper model lines will be safe from burn-in. It is possible to still find it in some generic brands, however. So you would be better off buying the low-end models of a brand that you trust than a knock-off brand, no matter how many features it claims to have.


Wearing ankle weights cause weight loss?

They will if you exercise with them on and eat fewer calories than you burn off by that exercise. They won't have any effect if all you do is sit around watching TV with them on. If those weights are heavy enough, you'll have a difficult time getting to the food...just a thought.


Which is the best tv lcd or plasma?

Plasma tv's are way better. It depends on what you will be using the tv for. LCD's are great for using as a computer monitor and gaming. Plasma t.v.'s tend to have darker richer colors and the blacks are usually inkier and darker which helps for a sharper picture. When shopping for a new tv look at all the display TVs and you will see the differecnce in the "blacks"..the darker the sharper...usually. It all comes down to what your eye likes the best. As for "burn in"...its possible for both lcd and plasma TVs to have signs of burn in if the screen has been paused on the same picture for long periods of time. Many myths say it will ruin the tv but these are all common misconceptions. Just keep the tv on for awhile and the burn in will eventually fade away...no worries. Many people say plasmas TVs are not good because they burn in and don't last as long as lcds....but this is just NOT true. If you just want a tv with a great picture and wont be using it as a computer monitor I recommend a plasma.
