[MPlayer-users] OSX: disable "auto-sleep" while playing a video?

[Mohammad A. Haque]

Hrm .. that's interesting. Never actually noticed if I had this  
problem. It could be that usually when I'm playing something in  
windowed mode, I'm also doing other stuff in other apps and when not  
I use it fullscreen. I'll have to test this.

Which output driver are you using (sdl, macosx, quartz, ...)?
