Using AxVlcPlugin2 ActiveX, windows screen saver is disabled

I am using the Activex (axvlc.dll) in my wpf applicatin, and made a custom player which looks good.

My issue is - the screen saver is not becoming active when my custom Wpf media application is running. I have unchecked the 'Disable Screen saver' option in VLC player settings, but still it doesn't help.
Verified the registry, ini file data, and that didn't help, and could not find any method or property to Not disable the screen saver while using the ActiveX control.

Can any one pl. suggest what would be the best option to enable screen saver while playing the vlc in my custon WPF application?

Thanks

Bump, I am using vlc to have a webpage of security cameras, and need to have the screen saver enabled. So this info would be useful.

I am not sure you can do that simply with the ActiveX module.
