It sounds like you reached your max amount of streams available.  Most get a max of 4 streams, but some depending on the distance from the servicing terminal only get 3, maybe 2.

 

AT&T U-verse offers up to four streams simultaneously. The types of streams that can be delivered are dependent on the capacity of the network in your area and your subscriptions. Based on the bandwidth of your connection and your account profile, the number of HD (high definition) and SD (standard definition) streams that can play simultaneously may vary. This chart breaks that down:

To look up the specifications of your account on your U-verse TV, press MENU on your remote and select Options, System Options, System Info then System Resources.

The OP posted the same question, in another thread.  Not sure why.

At any rate, @Anonymous , I really hate what AT&T calls their profiles xHDxSD, such as 4HD/0SD.  If my wife saw that, she would ask "So Ican't watch any SD channels?"  Seriously.  AND I bet that she would not be alone in asking that.  Why not Max 4HD, Max 3 HD Max 2HD and so on?

I have to agree with you.  The terminology that is used is quite vague and could be confusing to alot of people.

I would think the offered suggestion is more confusing as sounds like your losing inputs completely versus having type of input changed but always having 4 inputs.

4+0 is ?, 3+1 is ?, and 2+2 is ?
Much better than 4 or 3 or 2.... what happened to the 4.

There are those that are not even aware of 4 inputs limit till they try to exceed them.

Inputs?  Inputs?  I thought we are talking about streams?

Playoffs?  Playoffs?  Playoffs?
