Description Juan Antonio 2012-10-09 19:14:59 UTC 
totem don't inhibit screen goes off and there is no way to disable this option at all in the bridgnes settings.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2012-10-10 09:42:27 UTC 
Are you running under GNOME? Is gnome-screensaver running?
Comment 2 Juan Antonio 2012-10-10 10:25:17 UTC 
Yes, totem over gnome shell 3.6. I have not installed gnome-screensaver so no, it`s not running. 
Should be gnome-screensaver installed in order inhibit screen goes off?
Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2012-10-10 13:44:06 UTC 
Totem correctly uses GTK+ to tell gnome-session to not blank the screen:
$ gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SessionManager --object-path /org/gnome/SessionManager --method org.gnome.SessionManager.GetInhibitors 
([objectpath '/org/gnome/SessionManager/Inhibitor38'],)

$ gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SessionManager --object-path /org/gnome/SessionManager/Inhibitor38 --method org.gnome.SessionManager.Inhibitor.GetReason
('Playing a movie',)

$ gdbus call --session --dest org.gnome.SessionManager --object-path /org/gnome/SessionManager/Inhibitor38 --method org.gnome.SessionManager.Inhibitor.GetFlags 
(uint32 8,)
(that's 1 << 3, thus IDLE)
Comment 4 Bastien Nocera 2012-10-10 14:11:40 UTC 
I can only reproduce the bug on one of my machines, the other won't even blank the screen.
Comment 5 Juan Antonio 2012-10-11 07:55:16 UTC 
I get same results polling /org/gnome/SessionManager/Inhibitor1 but screen goes off while totem playing video anyway.
Comment 6 Bastien Nocera 2013-02-12 17:43:56 UTC 
I believe that was fixed in gnome-settings-daemon, see bug 686339.
