Aye, that's more or less what I figured. I still think what LG say on their site (strongly hinting that any damage
is repairable) is a tad misleading. My tv has built-in pixel shifting, but obviously that hasn't helped (or maybe it would be even worse had that not been enabled).
I'm guessing the engineer (who hopefully is coming Tuesday, but didn't call to confirm...) will tell me a less-articulate version of what you said, Doc. The question then is whether Domestic & General feel like buying me a new tv. I'm guessing not, but c'est la vie.
(It'll be interesting to hear them arguing that, for the purpose of their exclusion, "LCD screens, plasma or projection TV screens" implies "oh, or OLED screens", though.)
(And, to be fair, we did indeed play Zelda for a hell of a long time!)
(And it's still a bloody lovely tv, occasionally-visible dim hearts or not!)
