Flat panel TV shows a bright pinpoint of light in dark scenes

You may have a screen fault you need to take it to an engineer for proper diagnosis

Back light 11..Contrast 72..Sharpness 20..Brightness 44..Colour 50..Tint 50.

Either the TCON board or the LCD panel has failed. Start by replacing the TCON board. If the problem persists, the panel is bad and the cost to replace it would be too high.

The proper way to set flat screen tv's is opposite of old school CRT tv. First, find a movie with dark scenes and pause on a really dark part. Now set brightness only high enough to see some detail - no more. then go to a really bright scene and set contrast just high enough for good brightness. You may need to go back and forth a few times to get good setting.

I believe there may be another setting, it has to do with auto contrast which can make the TV seems to have high contrast ratio but sometime it does not work right, espically on the scene with dark sky with stars, someitme it will will reduce the brightness to make black real black and you can loger see the stars in the scene. I forget the name of this setting, it may be in the user manual. Do you see that in TV HD mode in other movies with a lot of dark scenes?

Might cause magnatic field,form.Try unplug,replug the tv an hour,move it couple inches to the left or right might help.

You are correct=====Return it ! It's new, you should not have to have it repaired this soon.

This is probably normal and called "Dynamic Contrast". Maybe this company has some other proprietary naming.

Basically, the Backlight (LCD) or Bulb (Projection) will be dimmed during dark scenes to allow the TV to make a deeper black.

There are two settings within you menu that controls the brightness of what is going on. OPC, and Active contrast. Turn both of those off and you should have some luck.

I had the same problem and so went into the menu and selected brightness and increased the number, and my dark pictures were much better.
