Anyone know if Samsung UE40B7020W HD TV has a dot for dot PC mode? Just been reading that if not, then part of the desktop may be lost at the edges. Heard there was a list of such TVs here at AVS Forums but can't find it.

Samsung calls it "Just Scan" mode. It should be described in the user's guide at their website under Picture/Size settings. It actually appears to still have 1% or less obtical overscan to insure that the frame borders do not appear on the screen. But this is not a problem with PC desktop applications. Also Samsung units do not overscan when using their VGA interface only when using Conponent or HDMI interfaces.

Thanks for quick reply Walford. Sounds good. :)

Looking through the download manual I had to laugh:

"Connect the clamps fixed onto the TV and the clamps fixed onto the wall with a strong string and then tie the string tightly." I think I've got a bit of string in a cupboard somewheres - that'll probably do to secure my new £1200 40lb TV to the wall.

"Do not display a still image and partially still image on the LED panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention. This image retention is also known as screen burn. ... Watching the LED TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders displayed ... Playing a DVD or a game console may cause a similar effect to the screen." Yet a video on Samsung's website says it can be used for "...framing your photo masterpieces." So... basically I'm OK so long as I don't use this TV to watch any DVDs or play games on my XBox or as a picture frame or to watch any broadcast programs or movies in 4:3 or 16:9 unless they are zoomed in or stretched.

I'm hoping they are massively exaggerating to cover themselves and this TV is no better or worse at burn in than any other LCD. I won't be hanging it with string though. ;)
