Stuck pixel on Pioneer Elite 151, can I massage the area on PDP?

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I got my Pioneer Elite PRO-151FD last Saturday. Amazing blacks and picture quality specifically HD sources and absolutely breathtaking blu-ray performance. I chose Pioneer Elite over Panasonic 58PZ850, even though I was getting Panasonic at almost half the price through my employer's Panasonic EPP site. Anyway I mentioned this on Elite forum: I have a stuck - white flashing pixel in bright blue backgrounds, somewhat in the middle (horizontally center and vertically about at 5/8th from top) of the panel.

I tried Jscreenfix about almost 7 hours and I tried 3 different Windows based utilities by connecting my laptop to 151FD via HDMI: Jscreen deluxe, udpixel and DPT. Now I am playing about 5 different Disney Pixar movies in loop as I was told that usually fixes stuck pixel.

What I have not tied yet is a massaging the pixel using included microfiber cloth and put some pressure on the panel around stuck pixel area because I though this approach would only work with LCDs where you don't have any glass or coating? Does you think massaging would make any difference on PDPs? My Pioneer dealer/AVS Forum sponsor Robert @ Value Electronics also suggested this idea after exhausting all other options.

Nope, only "works" on lcds.

If my wife caught me doing that on the 141 (not that you want to on a Plasma), the 141 (or me) would be out in the yard by the next morning... LOL
