Maybe in a next version, I hope...

Nothing new in the 0.8.1 version...

maybe in next version (this has been fixed now)

[ManuDevil]

Fixed ?? Are you joking ? Impossible to automatically disable the screensaver when VLC is running... and I'm using the last version, 0.8.1...

Manu: Read please
He said next version. since 0.8.1 is the current version, why do you expect it to work?

ummm I get around this problem by selecting the video output and the screen saver never turns on. I use the default skin but the video and controls are detached, and the video is on my secondary monitor, with it always on top.
