Comment (by Mario Limonciello <mario.mailing at gmail.com>):
I've noticed that while using this patch, DPMS won't be disabled at all
while Xscreensaver is disabled.
I typically have DPMS enabled for maybe an hour timeout, so if watching a
3 hour movie, I'll have to either go move my mouse or send an 'xset dpms
force on' to the machine from my laptop.
Could it be possible to merge something in to this patch that will query
the x-server for DPMS settings as well, and if enabled then disable DPMS
when the recording starts playing and re-enable it when the recording
stops playing?
The only issue I'd see with doing it that way is that if myth were to
crash during a recording playback, DPMS stays turned off, which isn't
really the end of the world for me.
