Samsung television screen is very dark and seems to get darker the longer it is on.

I have a Samsung television which I have had for about 6 years it is a 60 inch screen. It works very well except the last couple of days the screen seems to be getting darker and darker. We know can not watch some shows because it looks like they were all shot at night time. Is there an easy fix for this. Anyone have an idea of what it may be?
Model number. HLS5687WX/XAA
Serial# B19J3CEL902640Y

That is a DLP television and has a lamp/light that needs to be replaced between 1000 and 2000 hours.
