ok so I have had my Samsung LCD LN40A530 tv for about a year and a half with no problems until today. Whenever I play games on my PS3 that have a static image I get image retention within 40 minutes of playing (more visible the longer I play). It goes away when displaying a snow screen for awhile. Does anybody know why this would just start happening now? And only after 40 minutes? When I bought it, up until today I have always used the Dynamic picture setting: high backlight, brightness and contrast. Could this be why IR started happening? I never broke the tv in (didn't know much about hdtv's at the time). I just changed the picture settings a couple hours ago, played and still got IR. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
This is my picture setting now:
Mode: Movie
Backlight: 7
Contrast: 85
Brightness: 50
Sharpness: 18
Color: 52
Energy Saving: Low
