Those of you who are intrigued by the inner workings of your high-tech television and wonder why images may look just a bit grayish sometimes, this story’s for you.

Dirty screen effect, or DSE to TV geeks, refers to a lack of uniformity in solid colors displayed on LED/LCD and plasma televisions.
A vast majority of TV watchers will never notice this lack of uniformity, which is visible mostly in specific circumstances: during moments of bright colors or whites (such as during snowy white or desert scenes), or when the screen should look entirely black or gray but instead shows uneven, cloudy splotches and sometimes stripes or banding.
In LCD and LED TVs, DSE is typically a bigger issue, one that’s due to the way these units are illuminated. For the full story, click below:
