Public bug reported: While watching a video in Ubuntu Gnome/Unity GUI with the video player (Totem), screen goes black after a while, where the use of a video player was inhibiting the screensaver to kick in in previous Ubuntu versions.
Furthermore, in Control panel, the setting for screen to go black cannot be set to "never", maximum is "one hour", which doesn't give the user the choice to use this feature or not. Furthermore, Even when set to "One hour", my screen ingores the setting and goes black about every 10 minutes whatsoever. What a pain in the ... to have the screen go black every 10 minutes while watching a movie !
