Screen blank (idles) while watching a movie
#1
Hi,

I am running XBMC on my windows 7 machine.

My machine has 3 screens configured and on my third screen i have XBMC running.

While i'm watching a movie, all the screens go blank after 10 minutes of inatcitivty (Power saver kicks in from my windows settings).

My powersaving settings in Windows 7 is to turn off the monitor after 10 minutes of idle. I like to keep this feature on because when i'm not running XBMC, i want the monitors to turn off.
Normally, if i play a movie in MPC, the monitor will not turn off during a film. XBMC on the other hand


Is there a setting that can disable windows power saving mode while an activity is being done in XBMC (Music, movie, etc...)
