[REQ] Detecting microphone input for automatic idle mode. #224

Open LLeopz opened 3 months ago

LLeopz commented 3 months ago

Problem:

A lot of times i am using a headset and watching something with friends, not using the mouse or keyboard, the screen will black out into idle mode.

Sugestion:

Add (as an option) along with keyboard, mouse and controller use, if a microphone is receiving audio, so it won't black out the screen.

I'm aware of adding programs to to whitelist, but that would require micro-managing the program every time i put a headset on/off.

Thanks for this! It is interesting to allow for other types of presence detection than keyboard/mouse/controller. I imagine there could be more use cases and other types of presence monitors. Will add it to the list of potential features
