Interesting - I have the opposite problem. When I run mplayer, my
screensaver acts as normal (goes on after my 20 minute interval),
which is really annoying.  I have to turn the screensvaer off, and
then remember to turn it back on after mplayer is done.  Xine seems to
work better in this regard, but it won't play everything....

I find it's actually gmplayer that disables DPMS, and does that regardless
of the config setting for stopxscreensaver.  The non-gui mplayer does
not affect the DPMS setting.
