Eto naman ang intindi ko:
"Dirty Screen" is not a technical term. It's just a catch-all term to describe any and all defects perceived on a plasma screen.
I heard that this is another issue that dogs plasma aside from the Phosphor lag and the occasional Image Retention.
"Dirty Screen" is not an issue separate and distinct from phosphor lag and BI/IR. Iyun na nga yon. "Dirty Screen" is the general, non-technical description. Phosphor lag, BI and IR are the specific, technical descriptions.
Personally, I avoid using the term "Dirty Screen", and I try to use the correct technical term if I can.
Technical terms serve an important purpose in any field, be it law, medicine or electronics. An accurate description/diagnosis would not be possible without them.
Ang proposal ko, let's make this a thread for all plasma defects, para mas madaling hanapin for reference.
Discusss natin ang burn-in, image retention, green phosphor lag, dead pixels/stuck pixels (no joke, meron din niyan sa plasma
), purple ants, purple snakes, magenta bands, posterization/banding, judder, etc., etc.
