[Bug 439787] Re: mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing
I don't follow where anything in bug #505149 is worth looking at other then it's the same problem affecting mplayer-gui. I'm glad that someone mentioned bug #428884 since I was wondering why heartbeat-cmd wasn't working. I wanted to clarify something here. stop-xscreensaver has nothing to do with gnome-screensaver. gnome-screensaver and xscreensaver are different packages with different methods of disabling them. As far as Ubuntu is concerned, xscreensaver is long deprecated. As per gnome- screensaver in this particular case, using the most recent update of all packages (including mplayer-nogui in my case), I don't see mplayer saying that it is disabling screensavers as it did in previous versions of ubuntu (8.10 previously on this computer and 9.04 on my workstation at work). mplayer would, by default, attempt to stop xscreensaver and gnome-screensaver (separately since they are not combined) and would say so on the console window when you run it, Also I think it's worth noting that mplayer does not have the ability to disable gnome-screensaver natively and instead has relied on a patch. http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev- eng/attachments/20070715/67c23cbf/attachment.obj For what it's worth, since this problem is old and no one has fixed it at this point. I would suggest to everyone else to get the mplayer svn, patch with the link I just pasted and compile that. I would uninstall mplayer-gui first however you don't have to since /usr/local/bin takes precedence in the default bash PATH variable over /usr/bin and /bin -- mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Is this the same bug as 428884? It seems similar, but I haven't had a chance to test whether the recently released fix helps.

[Bug 439787] Re: mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing
I'm reopening this bug and confirming, as a few other people (previous comments) and I have noticed this issue in both the GUI and non-GUI versions of mplayer. It's particularly annoying with gnome-screensaver because for some reason, it does not recognize any input from the keyboard/mouse while fading in while mplayer is running. It works properly otherwise. ** Changed in: mplayer (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Released = Confirmed -- mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Cannot disable screensaver in SMPlayer since last update, too. First, I had this problem about mouse pointer popping up every 8-10 seconds in fullscreen if 'Disable screensaver' was checked (but screensaver was disabled), and now the option (set from GUI) doesn't work at all). Pretty annoying thing, given that in 9.04 it all worked just fine. -- mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 439787] Re: mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing
I can't disable the screensaver in Mplayer or VLC. There appears to be a separate bug report on VLC that gave me the impression the problem only affected VLC, but in my case the problem did not exist in either player under 9.04 and does on both my PC's now upgraded to 9.10 affecting both VLC and Mplayer. I hate to say it, but each Ubuntu upgrade seems to not only accumulate some new bugs but also retains a growing number of old bugs, some of which I find complaints existing since Ubuntu version 6. Personally, I would prefer to see a reduction in the number of bugs rather than an increase in the number of features, most of which do nothing to improve the use of my system. -- mplayer-nogui does not disable screensaver while playing https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439787 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Fullscreen mode. Thanks for the tip about the -stop-xscreensaver switch. I thought one may exist, but didn't feel like searching through mplayer's 12-foot manpage.

No, that switch does not work. I tried in absence of all other switches, with others, in fullscreen, and windowed.
