A quick look found this.

It says there is no burn in risk or temporary image retention.

Sure, but do you think you really need one? The CRT a d plasma needed
them but no more. Unless you just like the changing pictures or colors.

There are a couple of free Roku channels that act as screensavers, i.e.,
ever changing videos intended to interest or amuse. One turns your big
screen TV into a very colorful and realistic aquarium while the other
becomes a very realistic fireplace. Both of them include sound effects.

Yeah, that channel was an option in the tv I just bought. Called Nature
Free or maybe a better name is xstart.su.

It also has a beach and a running stream within a forest. I think my
dentist plays that so we won't notice all the pain he causes. Just
kidding, he's actually painless, except once for 5 seconds.

And maybe 1 or 2 other scenes.

Thomas' mention of the 55 inch screen reminded me of the old Hamm's
beer signs. The one I remember had a waterfall and a bear. It was in a
bar
in Pleasant Hill, NE.
This is similar.

Thanks all. I wanted to just see something while movies on pause while cooking.
I ended up at google play for a few free apps.
All is good. Still learning this smart tv.
