Hi,
While watching any video on mpv player (without an mpv frontend), the screen dims as per the system power settings. Mpv player does not prevent this behavior. The only workaround I have found is to use an mpv frontend like celluloid player.
From what I have read on other forums, mpv backend does not inhibit screen dimming on wayland, this problem does not happen on xorg.
Even after adding wayland in mpv.conf the behavior doesn't change:
Code:
save-position-on-quit
--geometry=1024x768+0+0
--gpu-backend=wayland
I would like to use mpv player without any front end, but it's not possible if it doesn't prevent the screen from dimming.
Any suggestions on how I could get it to work?
Thanks!
