Maybe it is your Windows screensaver? What is the settings?
or less likely - Are you watching in fullscreen mode? What is the setting in MP Configuration; General; Blank screen in fullscreen mode?

There is a screensaver process plugin that should do the job.
I have not yet used it myself, so please let us know if it worked.

Hey,
I hate to resurrect an old thread, but it seems to encompass the issue I am having quite well. Except I am running .2.3.0 on Vista. I have downloaded the screensaver plugin, but it doesn't seem to work. Newer version of MP and Vista could have a reason as to why it doesn't work.
Is there a setting or something in MP to disable Vista's screensaver and power settings? Thanks for any help.

EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...
