i don't know about mpv... but rage requests to suspend blanking while
fullscreen... so you don't need to know or care... :)

[e-users] Screen blanking ... but backlight stays on

[Mick]

A couple of days ago I selected Settings/Modes/Presentation because I wanted 
to watch a video and mpv would not stop the warning for the screen blanking 
coming on.

After I finished watching the video I unset the Presentation selection.  Now 
screen blanking takes place as it should, but the backlight stays on and the 
mouse cursor remains visible.  The warning never pops up as it used to.  I 
tried different things but cannot reset it to how it was as a default.

How can I put it all back as it was?

I still think it will but apparently e16 requires a restart for changes 
in this setting to take effect.

Those are the windows used to handle edge-flipping.
As things are it is not possible to configure e16 to do what you want.
