From what I understand, burn-in really isn't an issue with new-ish plasma displays. Any more than with a CRT anyway. That was more of an issue with the first few generations of products.

I'm getting a good deal on a last-years-model Plasma TV (NEC 50" MX3) and will be hooking it up to my Myth box. I'm very nervous about burn in, as this would be considered a very large purchase on my current salary :)

What do other users of Myth do to prevent this issue, while still keeping the WAF rating high? I guess I imagine while watching DVD, TV, etc the screen would not blank, but if it was idle on a menu for 30s or so it would black it out. Sort of like MythMusic does I guess. After 30s of no activity it goes full screen with my choice of music display.

I know that plasma TV's are getting better and better about not getting burned, and maybe I'm being over paranoid, but like I said, this is a big purchase, and ruining it would be a very sad day :)
