VLC 3.0.7.1 "disable screensaver" does not work

Postby lysathor » 21 Jun 2019 00:58

OS: Win10 x64 1903 ger
HW: Dell Notebook XPS15, i7, Radeon VX
VLC 3.0.7.1
The option Preferences/All/Video/Disable Screensaver is set.
During video playback the screensaver activates, the playback continues in the background.

How to reproduce:
Set up a screensaver and timeout. Play a video and wait the screensaver timeout. The option "disable screensaver" has no effect and the screensaver starts.

There was a ticket on this already: #20312 starts 20 months ago and not touched for 7 months. So, will this ever be fixed?
