Screen burn

We have a smart TV around a year old and my husband likes to listen to radio music channels through our Sky box. Our son has told us this may cause screen burn due to there being a static picture on the screen for some time. Is this true and if it is what can we do about it?

Hi @MB1952. Without knowing the model of your TV but if it is LED then unlikely. OLED or Plasma then a good chance. If you are worried about it then Action Menu Picture Off, press Back for Picture On.
