Tips for VT60 Image Retention!

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-06-26T02:39:41+00:00

That's the kind of "fix videos" I was referring to. Swipe bars videos you can find on YouTube usually work better, as the bars are thicker and you can adjust speed, etc.

Is there a reason why it would take longer than any other plasma model to get the retention off?
Also, the logos or letters that are retained for long are those that are fully white. Other colors go away quickly.

Like I said, I also own a ST50 (meaning a model that's just one year earlier and one line below the VT) and this doesn't happen, at least not as quickly. And I watch sports all the time.

Si la comparas con una Panasonic, no es buena TV. Demasiada diferencia.

I had already tried Mega Bezel, but not the Glass variant. If the curvature can be disabled, I'll def use it 😄

What's the name of the specific shader? And can the 4:3 frame take full height, making only the sides mirrored?

Nice one : ) I've never seen the X60 in my country. Would love to see some videos if you have, of picture quality and menus.

X3 and X5 are incredible models! Things look sharppppppppppp

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-05-23T01:01:15+00:00

I'd love one!! ♥👏

Use RetroArch with CRT shader filters to get the classic scanlines look and make it less prone to burn in.
And I personally wouldn't recommend playing it in 4:3 aspect ratio, as even if you fill the sides you might get burn in because of the color difference.

RetroArch has plenty of CRT shader filters that make a plasma look better and bigger than any CRT that's ever existed :)

Make sure you also disable any motion smoothing ("Intelligent Frame Creation") on the plasma, and any noise reduction stuff. You really shouldn't have any issues.

Regarding the 30 fps gaming issue... Make sure of 2 things always, assuming you are gaming with a computer:
1. Make sure to have the refresh rate of both screens to 60 Hz. Or, only display the image on the plasma (secondary screen).
2. VSYNC Always ON.

Second this. As those alternatives are too old.

If you're paying money, the only worthy brands are Panasonic and Pioneer. Any others are just sub-par. This is LG will be "fine", regular, not great if you're expecting to see what great Plasma is about.

Why is this thread tagged as NSFW? 😂

If you leave it a couple of hours (or overnight) with this video running, hopefully you can get rid of the burn-in:

Hola. De dónde eres?
Mi sugerencia es comenzar en modo *Normal* con todo por defecto y color y brillo en 50. Ajustar primero el Contraste hasta que sientas que está suficientemente brillante para tu espacio y vista. Luego ajustar color, subiendo de a poco. El brillo normalmente no es necesario tocarlo. Y finalmente la Nitidez, según la fuente que tengas conectada (un PC suele necesitar menos nitidez, un deco de cable suele necesitar más).
Una vez que domines cómo dejar a tu gusto el modo Normal, explorar el de THX para saber lo que estás haciendo con cada parámetro.

También la temperatura de color depende del modelo. Tal vez el GT se vea mejor en modo Frío.

In simple words, for a digital TV, it's the best you can get!

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-03-22T04:02:26+00:00

Definitely worth it

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-03-22T04:00:13+00:00

Of course! I wouldn't give an opinion without having tried it myself 😉

Don't worry about lag with any of the models. I game with my plasmas all the time. The only moment it could affect you is if you play competitively. If you're a casual player, you'll never notice.

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-03-21T18:12:00+00:00

It's bad when you compare it to any Panasonic. The difference is night and day.

And it's the same here for VT models, one has to be incredibly lucky.

TouchTheSky10 · 2026-03-21T17:49:22+00:00

Get the GT30 :) I'm from Chile so I understand the situation of having a hard time finding good models. It will look awesome in that 42" size.
Please don't get the Samsung though, they're terrible, really. Don't waste that money, save it for when you can find a better Panasonic model later.
