How it's used
Refers specifically to the visual content displayed on a screen, such as a television, computer, or phone. It is frequently used to describe a technical failure where the display goes blank, or to comment on the visual quality of a film or video game. Unlike the more abstract concept of a scene, this word is tied to the physical presence of a digital display.

Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe a physical photograph or a painting, as those are usually referred to as 相 or 畫. It is strictly for electronic or projected visual output.
