Re: [Bug 505149] Re: mplayer does not disable gnome-screensaver during playback in some conditions
It actually is solved. Don't know which exact update though. The mouse appearence in mplayer fullscreen is a little bit sluggish now. So there need to be some reassonable amount of mouse movement for the cursor to reappear. -- mplayer does not disable gnome-screensaver during playback in some conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505149 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

Re: [Bug 505149] Re: mplayer does not disable gnome-screensaver during playback
okay, I've now done some tests and can perhaps explain your observations. The binary installed in the mplayer package is actually 'gmplayer', sometimes called 'mplayer-gui'. It is actually widely unmaintained and known to be buggy. As for our screensaver patch. It seems to work only in these conditions: - in mplayer windowed mode iff the pointer is inside the window - in mplayer gui mode It does *not* seem to work in the following conditions: - in mplayer winowed mode if the pointer is outside the window - in gmplayer in fullscreen - in gmplayer in windowed mode -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- mplayer does not disable gnome-screensaver during playback in some conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/505149 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

After installing that package, Mplayer associates itself with certain media filetypes. Double-clicking on one of the associated filetypes launches mplayer with a GUI If you right click on the controller or a video window you can select the option "preferences". Inside the preferences menu, you can click on the "misc" tab and you will see the option "Stop XScreenSaver" with a check toggle option.
