There a brown shadow (tint) in middle of the pitch when watching uhd sky football on my 4k lg tv
Its very strange...While watching Football on the sky channels the middle of the green playing surface the middle part of the pitch when the teams are playing there is a slight brown tint?
I notice when ITV OR BBC show football games its now there?
Look forward to any help in this matter.
It only happens when thye game is being played and now when its showing close uo of the players etc
Cheers John😁

It sounds to me like your TV is suffering from DSE or Dirty Screen Effect.
Sadly there is no fix as it is a hardware issue (apart from changing the panel). If your TV is a fresh purchase or has a warranty, I would be contacting them for a swap.

I have been in touch with Richer Sounds and its apparently its caused by screen burn and is not covered by the 6 year guarantee, just my luck !
It's strange as when they are selling the TVs they don't mention screen burn?

I would complain direct to LG
is this area of the screen that's affected fixed or does it move as the camera pans?

It is item 9 in the exceptions list - Screen burn caused by channel logos or other static images.
It is quite a common issue especially on OLED tvs.
