Video players should add an inhibitor via logind, I know alteast VLC does, and would assume totem would also. What player are you using?

Didn't try Joseph. That's a so basic feature that I didn't think I have to change some settings to see this fixed.

"Dim screen" is checked of course, that's absolutely normal, as it is normal the internals of the OS override this setting when playing a video.

So I may change the settings, but which one? and which value do I have to set?

What happens when you change the defaults for your screen saver? If you
are not interacting with the computer via the keyboard or mouse the
screen will co dark. I'm not an expert but I hope this helps.
