Could you first try the screensaver disabling post.  You can ssh into the
frontend:

export DISPLAY=:0
xset -dpms
xset s off

play a video and try it.  Barring that, I'll just be honest - I'm not
willing to spend the time to track it down with gdb (you would have to
decipher the output anyway) and you would need to email the dev list to try
for a patch with extra logging baked in.

Does the debian version run Xorg or Wayland?  I still run X for other
reaason, so the xset commands may not work on Wayland - I am not sure.
