screen image is dimming to screen saver and appears again

[Jérôme]

Binary package hint: vlc

With the default settings, VLC seems to let the screensaver start (the delay matches the screensaver delay). Thus the screen image is slowly dimming to the blank screen (my screensaver) and it seems to be waked just after the dimming has reach the end of the sequence (full blank screen).

Watchin a vidéo is boring because of those dimming cycles.
