Can you still see the spot when the TV is off? In any event, the screen may have something on it or the mirror that reflects the image from the projector where the bulb is. Make sure the projector bulbs are clean. Good luck, thanks for using FixYa.

The DLP chip needs to be replaced. Samsung is aware of this problem and will probably cover the cost of part and labor. call 1-800-samsung for nearest service center. I replaced the chip on a 3 year old machine yesterday and Samsung covered all costs.
Bad news, The Light engine has gone bad.The cost of the light engine is usually over $800.
Do Not Repair. Cut your loses. Always buy an extended warranty on any new electronic gadget, especially a TV. It will pay for itself.
