Prevent Screen blanking while playing/streaming video
Disabled Screensaver, set everything to "Never" in Power Management Preferences but that didn't help. Then i found this gem and it works for me.
Didn't want to put any more load on startup so made an alias instead. Hope it helps somebody experiencing the same annoyance.

Re: Prevent Screen blanking while playing/streaming video
My problem ended up being due to having more than one set of configuration settings available. I had KDE System Settings and GNOME System Settings. I removed everything kde until the KDE system settings went away, and rebooted the system. I have never had aproblem since.
