I just downloaded the latest cvs and tried with xscreensaver. It still starts while watching a recording. I didn't try with the kde screensaver. I have no idea why it might work on others and not mine. I'm running Mandrake 9.1. If there is anything I can do to help track it down, please let me know. I would be very appreciative of your help.
