I meant it can't be, as currently implemented.

Oh I realise it can't do it, I just just didn't think it would be that hard to implement.
It shouldn't be, but maybe it's more complex than it seems.
shouldn't be difficult firmware updateable ? - piggy-back off of the abl mechanism which establish/integrate overall picture content.

Well my C8 has developed a bit of image burn in, Mrs had the snooker on and fell asleep with it on with her usual afternoon cat nap, the score board at bottom of table is showing up, not noticeable on normal viewing as of yet but seen it when on the lg app store which is like pinky/red background

SPOOK! I wouldn't worry too much, you can always get another. The wife i mean.
I can imagine a lot of people fall asleep to the snooker.

runs pixel refresh
if that fails, just use the TV and enjoy it or buy a new one, the C8 is about at that age now where a upgrade is not a bad choice. I wouldn't expect to go longer than 3 years on average if you're gonna be using the TV with fixed elements like scoreboards
What? I have a B7 and I’d be furious if I had to buy a new one after only 3 years.

I have been using Oleds for about 6 years now and have not had any burn in on any of my tv’s and mine get used for just about everything. Not saying it does not exist but I think it’s maybe a dodgy panel from the start that makes it more susceptible to burn in ?

It's the modern way, people replace them every year or two even without issues. Keeping up with the internet Jones'.
I paid £2700
that's the price they were in 2018I do, I won't be getting a new one just yet, just bought a cx one for my pc, I would like 5 years out of it, got other things to buy first like a new fish tank which costs more than the tv

I bought a 55” B7 pretty much on release and it’s now suffering from screen burn, John Lewis obviously not interested, I did try to argue that the additional warranty they offer now wasn’t an option at the time of purchase so I didn’t even have a choice but no…
Currently discussing a discounted panel replacement with LG, waiting for a final confirmation.

People buying new OLEDs every year or just ordinary TVs?

Not so much here but over on avforums there are people who must have the latest model every year.
Strange. Do they boast?
