Because sometimes you want to watch a video non-fullscreen with duration longer than your screensaver's timeout? I certainly don't fullscreen all the videos I watch. I think it would be hard to programmatically distinguish between the non fullscreen foreground case and all permutations of the video-as-page- background use case you describe. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434476 Title: screensaver starts while playing HTML5 videos To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/firefox/+bug/434476/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
