Press OK to watch U-Verse TV?

My 82 yr old Mother lives with us and constantly having this issue as well as others on her TV, sure wish their was a fool proof way not to cause this to happen. Her eyesight is very poor too so I imagine she pushes a lot of wrong buttons although she never seems to have an issue with the living room tv/dvr...?

That is interesting.

I realize this thread is a few weeks old, but I was searching for an answer to a related problem and this is as close as I got. 

The "screensaver" that's mentioned in this thread isn't a screensaver... it's a static screen.  A true screensaver would move and prevent burn-in of a static image on your TV. 

I'm a new Uverse customer.  Yesterday I paused live TV and then went outside.  I came back a half hour later and was surprised to see that the paused image was still on the screen.  I came from DirecTV and they had a feature that caused a real screensaver to appear a few (five, I think?) minutes after pressing pause... either on live TV or a recorded show.  So AT&T doesn't have this feature?  If not, is there some official place to suggest stuff?  I've got a ton of suggestions...

I realize this thread is a couple years old but...over 2 years and still no screensaver... 

If I had to guess as to why there is not one........It would probably take up additional resources on the receiver and all of the existing resources need to be allocated for proper operation.
