Remote light at night

When it’s dark at night I can’t see the remote buttons. I have to hit one to get it to light up then I’m hitting something I don’t want. Xfinity had the remote if you move it, it lights up. Ant thoughts?

Really need a plain dark screensaver

A few years ago I asked about a screensaver and within a week the slide show appeared. Not taking credit for what was certainly a coincidence, but fingers crossed anyway.

Remote control beeps during the night

One of my S10-S4 remote controls beeps during the night, night after night, even though it is not being used and the TV and DVR have been off for hours. I changed the batteries to brand new ones but that did eliminate the problem. Is there a solution other than requesting a new remote control?

Cloud DVR is pretty lame. How can I tell it to record every episode of the Monday Night Football series without making it record every NFL game that is ever shown on DirecTV Stream?

Artifacts during night scenes

Hi, we had our U-verse installed yesterday. Overall our experience has been good, but we're seeing pretty noticeable artifacts during night scenes. The black background of the scenes has a ton of blocking / artifacts in it. We have a 55" TV and do not see the artifacts on BluRay. I know U-verse uses
