You cant get burn in on a LCD screen, are you sure you know what your talking about?
Once again someone saying something they have no idea if its true but believe it to be so they spread there misinformation to the internet as fact. LCDs CRTs Plasmas projection tvs, all have the ability to have burn in or have image retention. Though some like CRT are hard to get it, its still possible. I have seen permanent burn in in all forms of TVs over the years do to my father being a TV repairman(for 40 years). Image retention is temporary and will go away over time. Burn in is permanent. It erks me a little when everyone calls it burn in when its clearly image retention. When I first got Mincraft XBLA I had huge marathon gaming sessions of Minecraft on my new 60in plasma only to notice the hotbar retention. It did go away over time but have since switched to an LCD(which are less likely to get retention) for Minecrafting.
You cant get burn on an lcd monitor, if your seeing ghosting (or Image Retention as you call it) thats another problem, its not the same as burn in though. Really dont appriciate you coming on here saying i dont know what im talking about when you've basically just confirmed what i said in your post.
What your getting is ghosting, not burn in. Ghosting disapears over time, burn in dosnt. Maybe your the one that should do some research.
The problem you've got here is people dont understand what burn in is, including you two. I dont quite understand how you've managed to get image retention thats that bad you cant get rid of it on an LCD tv, you would liturally have to leave the xbox on for 6 months on the same screen without switching it off for that to happen, and minecraft XBLA hasnt even been out that long.
I'm sorry, but there seems to be a serious confusion of terms going on.
Ghosting is when a hint of the last frame is left while the new one is being displayed, culminating in a dreamlike ghost image appearing when fast motion occurs. This is usually most notable during low contrast, high action sequences on 60Hz LCDs. Ghosting isn't when an image gets temporarily "stuck" on the screen.
