It’s possible to inhibit the display turn off in kde using ``kde-inhibit --power --screenSaver ``` However, I want to inhibit the display turning off only when playing media (either by spotify or a browser), and let it sleep as usual when not playing media.
How could I achieve this? Is there a lower level solution that doesn’t envolve the DE’s setting?
In KDE there is an option in the system tray called “Display Configuration”. If you click on that you can see a checkbox called " Enable Presentation Mode". That’s my goto method. Can’t really help for other desktop environments.
However I do seem to remember an extension from my Ubuntu and Mint days. I think it was called caffeine. It gave you a little coffee cup in your system tray that would disable sleep/hibernation.
I’m also sure there are ways to do it via the CLI.
