I had some trouble with burn in on an OLED TV that was being left on all the time. I did some research and found out that the effect goes away by leaving the screen off for a few hours every day. I set the TV to turn off every evening, and the burn in problem went away and less electricity was wasted.

I wonder if this is happening from very heavy use or something else that's not allowing the screen to recover.
