When I watch a long video and don't move mouse the screen turns off (screensaver). It doesn't happen on youtube for example. It's quite annoying.

Windows 10, Opera GX

Hi @Morphin

I downloaded and tested the browser you mentioned on Windows and had no problems, I tested it for 20 minutes with my screen-settings set to turn off after 5 minutes of inactivity and it stayed on fine. It may be that you have some strange app or OS settings that could be causing this.

Could check is if you have similar behavior in other browsers?

It's wierd. I set my energy options to 2 mins and test some videos. It doesn't shut on some of it, but does on this one: https://cloud.blender.org/films/tears-of-steel?asset=51

I remember that it happened before, may be only on old videos?

It also shuts down with Chrome

I guess I get it. Only videos in films section shuts down the monitor. It happens on all of this and more:

But not in proper training videos. I can't find at least one.
It the same on both: Opera and Chrome
