it is simple just call a tv mechanic
yes, we have a plasma and never leave it paused, it won't damage the tv short term but long term pauses can burn an image into the tv
Image burn is a feature of plasma televisions but it is almost impossible to see it after just one month. Don't keep static images on a plasma screen for long periods of time and this problem will never appear.
Plasma televisions do have a finite life. The phosphors that generate the image age as they are used. It is this feature that can cause "plasma burn", an effect that shows a permanent shadow of a static image that has been displayed for many hours on the screen. Plasma burn is an exceptional event and if the display is used for normal domestic viewing, then it should last for many years. As it ages, the image brightness may reduce a little but this is rarely noticed. It is quite reasonable to expect a plasma screen to last for five to ten years with normal viewing. Manufacturers rarely quote operating hours as there are many variables that affect the life of screens.
They cost too much they are subject to "burn in" if an image is left on the screen paused too long They must be stored and used right-side up. if you mount a plasma to a ceiling it's ruined. When an LCD's backlight burns out, you can replace the bulb. when a plasma doesn't light up, you replace the entire plasma. they are heavier. The image quality isn't any better.
LCD technology is not prone to screen "burn-in" or "ghosting" (premature aging of pixel cells) due to the nature of the technologies "twisting crystals." With plasma, static images will begin to "burn-in," or permanently etch the color being displayed into the glass display element. Therefore go for the LCD TV Panel.
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.
Plasma televisions use phosphors to generate visible light. Although the technology is different to older CRT based televisions, the phosphor is common to both of them. Plasma televisions gained a poor reputation when they were first introduced because static images could cause phosphor burn in a short period of time. Phosphor burn is caused by high brightness levels on certain parts of the screen with the result that the phosphor is no longer as effective as it was, showing a dark shadow of the image that was left on the display for too long. Since their introduction, the screens are far more stable and phosphor burn is not as much of a problem as it was. Despite the improvements, showing a high contrast static image for long periods of time can still cause image burning. For domestic use, this shouldn't be an issue.
Since the invention of the Plasma TV, manufacturers have been working on the issue of "burn-in". Newer plasma screens come equipt with features that reduce the tendency to have burn-in
The plasma in plasma TV is actually real plasma. Many people tend to think that plasma is something made up by science fiction novels, but it's actually closer to home then you might think. plasma is a state of matter like a solid, liquid or gas but with different properties. It is best described as being similar to gas, but is not exactly the same. The reason why plasma is used in televisions is because it can be manipulated into showing different colours. Plasma is matter heated to roughly 10,000 degrees and so if you pause an image on a plasma screen TV and leave on for a long time it will begin to burn into your TV. Plasma is often commonly found in households as it is used in light bulbs.
Early Plasma TVs have many problems including burn in not just from game consoles
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.
Plasma TV uses very tiny cells and the gas in the cells emit the image. But plasma TVs get very hot extremely fast. LCDs are more energy efficient
