Rob,
I am not sure if it will work for you but on my desktop i use a program called "caffeine" that will block the screen saver under certain conditions. To make it work with pipeline/siilverlight you would need to add 'pluginloader.EXE' to the list of programs that caffeine watches for.
On my cell right now so directions may be off a hair.
