Agree.
Changed the title and added mplayer as affected.

** Also affects: mplayer
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Summary changed:

- fullscreen smplayer should prevent screen dimming
+ fullscreen mplayer / smplayer should prevent screen dimming

** Description changed:

  when playing a video in smplayer in fullscreen in kubuntu 12.10 while on
  battery the screen dimms after a timeout. I think powersaving features
  like this should be disabled while fullscreen video playback. I am
  pretty sure that in kubuntu 12.04 fullscreen _did_ inhibit the screen
  dimming.
  
  kubuntu 12.10 64bit
  upgraded from 12.04
  smplayer 0.8.0-1
+ 
+ EDIT: originally i experienced this for smplayer, now i tested with
+ mplayer and there is the same problem
