hi this bug was discussed upstream in http://lists.mplayerhq.hu/pipermail/mplayer-dev-eng/2007-February/049059.html the problem is that, nowadays, there are too many screensavers and powermanagement gizmos arounds to reasonably support each and any of them specifically; the best thing would be to use a freedesktop spec , see http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.wm-spec/1357 but the situation is AFAIK still unclear possibly next version of MPlayer will contain this solution http://bugzilla.mplayerhq.hu/show_bug.cgi?id=251 you may want to try the patch that is in that PR http://www.eleves.ens.fr/home/george/info/prg/mplayer-20050304-noidle.diff (unfortunately Debian is in freeze now, and it is not possible to get that patch in etch) a. -- Andrea Mennucc "The EULA sounds like it was written by a team of lawyers who want to tell me what I can't do, and the GPL sounds like it was written by a human being who wants me to know what I can do."
