Description Peter Janakiev 2009-01-10 15:16:19 UTC 
Description of problem:
When I star watching the downloaded videos from Miro my screen saver gets activated no matter I am actually watching a video thus I am not supposed to move the mouse or press a button on the KBD meanwhile. This is not correct, the gnome-screensaver should not blanc the screen during video playback.
I use Miro with gstreamer backend and gnome desktop with the default settings - the activate screensaver is set to 5 minutes of idleness.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Miro-1.2.8-1.fc10.i386
gnome-screensaver-2.24.1-2.fc10.i386


How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set the idle time to something low as 5 minutes
2. Open Miro, download some episode of a show and play it
3.
  
Actual results:
after five minutes of playback the screen darkens and turns off

Expected results:
the video playback should inhibit the screensaver, the user is not supposed to see screensaver while watching video!

We're tracking this issue upstream in bug 3067:

   http://bugzilla.pculture.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3067

Miro 2.0 has a fix for disabling the gnome screensaver when watching videos in fullscreen.  The infrastructure is there for other screensaver systems, but no support has been written yet.
