If you own a large flat screen TV and you're serious about achieving optimum performance from your television and you want to preserve the life of your TV set, then PixelProtector™ is for you!

The PixelProtector™ DVD is packed full of features that will ensure your television is correctly calibrated to give the sharpest and most colourful image your TV has to offer. With the latest in Plasma Setup tools and LCD Setup tools you can be sure to get a crisper picture.

Optimise your display
PixelProtector™ provides a range of tools for video measurement that support a broad range of formats and resolutions.

The best measurement of a TV’s picture is of course the viewer's satisfaction with the image being displayed. When looking at a moving image or even a still frame on your display, it can be difficult to know if you have any colour bleed or dot crawl(unless it is severe). Can you be sure that your panel is setup correctly?  Using test signals in PixelProtector™ allows you to accurately adjust your screen to its full potential.  The quality of analog and digital video systems can been measured indirectly by measuring the distortions of static test signals.  Subjective human visual assessments can provide invaluable information for you to optimize your displays image quality.

Under/over scan test screens displaying different resolutions clearly shown on screen, allow you to measure against you panels native resolution and adjust settings accordingly for perfect image placement.

Specific test signals are provided for aligning and calibrating projection sets, over head projectors and rear projection.  

PixelProtector™ is the complete video test reference and maintenance tool.

Screen burn, image retention and recalibrating pixels
Static, non-moving images left on-screen for extended periods of time can leave a "shadow" on plasma, lcd & projection displays (this is true of models from all manufacturers)

You are normally told to avoid extended display of static images. Games consoles can also have a negative effect on panels.

PixelProtector™ will recalibrate pixels uniformly and remove any residual effects that may have occurred.

TV channels that have a static logo permanently on screen have a real negative effect on plasma and lcd TV’s. Pixels begin to memorise these images, upon switching channels you will still see the logo in the form of a shadow. After several minutes it will disappear (If not you have burn in). If 99% of the shadow has disappeared you will not notice the 1% that remains. It is the continual build up of the 1%’s that is called residual effect. Not just restricted to TV channel logos. It’s build up over months and even years will lessen the picture quality of you TV. The issues with screen burn and residual effects are far more complex however we have tried to simplify its cause and effect for obvious reasons.

PixelProtector™ can remove burn in and residual effects. It uses a wash tools that switch pixels on and off at a very fast rate (this is not in any way harmful). Included is a white wash for lesser burn in and image fix. In other words it recalibrates the pixels uniformly by removing any memory they may have.

There are different types and levels of burn in. The most severe of which occurs in the first 200 hrs of the panel's life when pixels are at there most excitable. In this time frame pixels can permanently memorise static images that have been left on screen for prolonged periods.

We have many customers who have removed screen burn from their panels by using the removal tool regularly, as per the instructions in the DVD.

In many cases it can be removed after just one session.

If the burn in is not removed first time, it will have been significantly reduced. Don’t forget it is easier to prevent burn in then it is to remove it!

Dead Pixels
Dead Pixels occur when the individual cells burn out or do not energise correctly, PixelProtector™ DVD Edition can help diagnose and in some cases re-energise dead pixels to help you get the very best out of your screen.

Many manufactures believe that 3 drop outs are acceptable. We believe even 1 drop out is unacceptable.

User Friendly
PixelProtector™ has been developed with home users in mind. During its development stage one of the main obstacles we had to over come was insuring every one could use it (not just engineers and techno buffs). We tested the DVD on many groups of people whose feedback was invaluable in making PixelProtector™ the best product in the market. 

We back up our product with full on-line support and help for all our customers.

PixelProtector™ provides a real user friendly solution to making sure your TV is performing to its full potential and that you are getting the best out of your equipment. It easy to use all you need is a DVD player! So click here to buy now!
