I have no idea how my grandparents keep doing this but they keep calling me to “fix” the description for the movie “Waves” is overlayed in the upper left corner, the screen is gray but you can still see the channel playing. It stays on no matter what channel, in the guide, in on demand, every menus option ever !
I can only fix it by unplugging the box and resetting it but what is even causing this?!
Solved! Go to Solution.

Mine reset when I went into settings and just clicked save settings. I don't know the cause but they should save a restart, which is painfully slow.
I should note that it was a grandparent for me also.
My mother (almost 80) showed my this EXACT thing today - what is Waves to begin with?
I am going to try to reboot her device, but I too want to know how this is happening to older people only???

Thank you - worked like a charm - wonder what is happening; my mom is 86 as well and does this constantly; trying to figure out which buttons she is pushing;
we also have an issue with pressing the 0 and input and I get a call that ‘the TV broke again’. 🙂

My mom used to do essentially the same thing all the time. She'd change inputs, then I'd get a call the TV was all snow. Colored the button red to keep her from pressing it too often, then put a post it up with how to fix instructions.
