should override power save settings to prevent screenblanking while watching

[Rumpeltux]

Binary package hint: kaffeine

kaffeine 1.1-0ubuntu1 @Ubuntu 10.10 (maverick)

When (gnome’s) power saving settings are active, kaffeine will not prevent these, when watching movies / TV. As a result, the screen blanks and no more video is displayed until an input event is triggered.
I’m not sure how this is handled technically, but I guess kaffeine should (when displaying video) notify the power manager to prevent screen blanking. (In case it already does the bug will be on the power manager side, not noticing / ignoring this)
