On XUbuntu, the new Light Locker puts the screen black when playing video as if there was no activity.

That is supposed to happen when the user is away from keyboard but in the case of playing a video, no mouse or keyboard activity may be registered for two hours and still the screen must remain active.
This didn't happen with the old screen saver.

This applies to both and VLC and Parole.
