Ok. This may sound silly, but, I'm doing a test on my 19" Directview to see how long it takes for a stationary image to burn into the screen. I popped in Automobili Lamborgini in my N64, named myself BURN IN and did a single race. Of course, I got first place.
It showed my the menu of who got first place and who everybody else ranked. Well, after that, I left that image on the screen. I gotta fan blowing on the N64 so it don't get too hot. So far, it's been on for 13 hours straight with that some image, and I haven't got any trace of burn in. I keep checking by turning it off. I'm just wondering. How long will it take before I can see just a "HINT" of burn in?
BTW, we got this TV brand new for my grandma to use in her bedroom. Paid about $100 bucks for it. She used to leave it on constantly. Almost all day and ALL night. Then she died and I got her TV, since the other 19 inch in my bedroom went bad. If I get any burn in, I ain't gonna let it bother me. I'm sure it'll fade after a while of use. I got the brightness and contrast up full blast. I got the sharpness up higher, and the color is fullblast.
Just want an idea how long it may take.
