Does the CX-919 have a screensaver mode or a sleep mode? I have a plasma TV and don't want it to burn in

unfortunately it doesn't but what you can do is run a live wallpaper so the screen doesn't stay in the same state for an extended period of time. Or do what I do run XBMX all the time and that has screensaver mode built in.

Not that I encountered. I have a LCD and it never goes for sleep mode when I attach the cx-919 to it. But I am not sure about any setting if there is any.

I've had a Panasonic 58" plasma for about 4 years. It gets a heavy dose of ESPN Sport Center fixed borders and a steady diet of Role Playing Games with static screen elements from the Xbox 360. I have never had any problems with burn in or image retention. The only problem I see with my plasma is that it can suck enough power to set off the alarm on my A/V power conditioner on games that use white loading screens (solution - turn off the alarm).

I have not had that problem since they never leave the screen saver active, and the rest have had no complaint about the product.I hope I've helped

I turned mine off also, it is too annoying for an old guy like me. Look on page 30 of the instruction manual if you have one under "Changing the Display" and try the "no display" procedure. If you don't have the manual, it says to press the Display button repeatedly (on right side middle of the remote) with the system turned off until you have no display (power saving mode). Hope this helps!

On my TV the sleep timer is accessible via the menu. There is no sleep button on the remote.

I owned the Samsung plasma PN50B450. My home was recently burglarized and the TV was hauled off. I am here shopping for a replacement. Anyway, I play a lot of Xbox (which was also taken). I speak from personal experience regarding burn in and this set. There can be some image retention with this set. This is with the TV set at "cinema" and with pixel shift on the recommended settings even. The images fade with time (a few hours of watching something else or playing another game). You will only see these ghosted images on a white screen. As I mentioned before, they are feint and fade in a few hours or so. I never experienced burn in though. I owned the Samsung plasma PN50B450.

It stays on all the time. You have to turn it off when not in use. The spec's say it uses 0.5W in stand-by, which I assume means off. It also uses up to 20W of power when on. However, when your TV set is off it is probably only using a small amount of power more than in stand-by. There is no "sleep mode" in the traditional sense where its smart enough to turn off itself.

Hi Michael,burn in is pretty much a thing of the past now.Panasonic tvs move the image slightly a row or two of pixels (you can't notice it) to keep burn in at bay anyway.Just don't pause the game for hours on end and you should be right.If you notice the effect put the tv on an analogue station that's untuned and the snowy picture will clear it .Mpst tvs have a widget called an orbiter that puts a small image on the screen and it moves around if it detects a paused picture after a certain amount of time.I hope this helps and enjoy your new Plasma.

Besides checking to see what the timing is on your computer power saver mode to see if it is putting the monitor to sleep, i would contact ASUS directly to see if they can repair or replace it.

Yes, you can turn it off, but you will need to pick another mode. If you don't have a cable service with HD, then don't even bother watching shows with this TV. Sadly, the definition is so good, that the standard cable service looks bad. Plasma (this is my opinion) is the worst of the three ( LCD, LED and Plasma). The graphics and quality of the images (HD or 3D) are beautiful. I already gave you my opinion about cable, so I'll tell you about the rest: Videogames: They look like you are watching a movie! Movies (DVD): It depends of the quality of the movie, a couple of them may look bad bacause of the ratio. Movies (Blu-Ray): Soap Opera makes them look like you are watching how the movie is being film. Movies (3D): I'll call this the best 3D you can get out there. My big concern was this. I wanted a TV with the best 3D definition for my movies. This TV went over my expectations.

I am utilizing the image burn in protection, which is set to "on" as the default setting anyway for this tv. I haven't seen any burn in issues even though i have watched movies close to 2 hrs long with the black bars on the top and bottom of the screen.

Overscan using catalyst control center. That's how I get full screen on my LED TV.

I have some issues with it. Sometimes it appears to go into Hibernate mode rather than sleep mode. Probably happens about 30% of the time. I do have a Shieldz screen protector on the unit and believe that may be contributing to the issue.

In the TV menu, under picture, there is a setting called C.A.T.S. Turn this setting off and the TV will not auto adjust the panel brightness.

The picture remains on, it has never shut off like a screen saver, and it is a very clear picture, even at night. hope this helps. You should also know that there are many advanced features, so you wish, you can set it to keep the picture off until there is noise, and you pick the level of noise that will trigger the picture. It really is a good monitor if you can get it at a good price.

It's probably because this model is a LEMON. The plasma display only last between 1 to 3 months and then is dead! Check the people who have bought this piece of **** and are mad as hell. Their reviews are here if you spend the time to read them.
