Hi,

I believe that this bug is neither in KDE nor in VLC, but in the xdg-screensaver script [1] (Part of xdg-utils), which VLC relies on to suspend the screensaver [2]

Fortunately, there is a working patch [3] available on the upstream bugtracker [2], which applies cleanly on the xdg-screensaver script included in MGA2 (And Possibly Cauldron/MGA1 too)

Here's a minimal testcase for the aforementioned patch:

1. $ cp `which xdg-screensaver` .
2. $ curl https://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=38251 | patch -p0
3. $ vlc &
4. $ ./xdg-screensaver suspend `xprop -name vlc | grep "WM_CLIENT_LEADER(WINDOW)" | cut -d" " -f5`
5. Check if screensaver activates (It shouldn't as long as the VLC process is alive)

Shlomi, what is your take on this - should we file a new bug against xdg-utils?

Hi Manuel Hiebel,

I am doubtful of the duplicate of bug 4027:
- The bug 4027 is about the arisen of screensaver during VLC run; 
and now -under Mageia 4- VLC, with the default config, prevents this.
If bug 13302 would be the duplicate of bug 4027, it is fixed, and must be not noticed.
- The bug 13302 is related to activity config, not to an application. 
If there is no lauched application in the activity, what WindowID of xdg-screensaver to prevent arise of screensaver?

From the previous comment:
> Th[is] bug 4027 is about the arisen of screensaver during VLC run;
> and now - under Mageia 4 - VLC, with the default config, prevents this.
So closing fixed.
