Just using the standard Raspbian screensaver settings. It's set to dim
the display after 1 minute, and completely turn off the display
backlight after 30 minutes (this works regardless of wether something is
playing). When nothing is playing Material has a clock screensaver
(fairly basic but looks okay). 
(this uses a bash script to monitor screensaver status and toggle the
backlight power) 

In principle this solution should work by itself, but I've also added a
LED-button that lights up when the display turns off (to indicate the
screen is in sleep mode) and turns the screen back on when you press it.
(this uses a python script)
