Is there a way to tell the computer to suspend power management while
watching a video that's longer than the set timeout?

OS is Zubuntu 20.04 with XFCE.
There is a setting in VLC to disable power management (i.e., stop the
screen saver from coming on) while watching a video. It worked great
until 18.04, and then stopped working. I now have 20.04 and it still
doesn't work.

When it first stopped working I searched the net and found advice on
how to get it working again, but none of the suggestions ever worked.

Sigh. I guess I'll just have to manually enter Presentation Mode and then remember to exit it when I'm finished with the video.

Thanks.
