Force windows to delay screen saver/sleep mode while emulator is running #547

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
As an enhancement, having windows regard mupen64plus emulation screens as video 
playback so screen savers won't pop up during game play would be very useful. 
My controller (may flash USB controller adapter for windows) doesn't register 
as user activity so I keep having to pause the game to move the mouse. Also, 
I've attached an input config file with button mapping for the controller 
adapter. The current one in the distribution only works with OSX.

SDL should already do this for us. See SDL_VIDEO_ALLOW_SCREENSAVER 
http://wiki.libsdl.org/moin.fcg/FAQUsingSDL

Please send your changes for the InputAudioCfg file to the mailing list or add 
a bug report with the necessary changes in it. Combining unrelated things in 
one bug report just leads to confusion and makes it easy to forget important 
things

For whatever reason, it doesn't when I use the wxmupen frontend.

The problem probably lies in using the internal video extension.

er-for and seems to be invalid for mupen64plus.
