I'm trying to watch a movie in Windows Media Player, but the screen saver keeps turning on. In the options I have "Allow screen saver during playback" unchecked, but it still happens. Anyone have a solution?
EDIT:
Maybe posting at midnight my time wasn't the best time for responses... I've tried everything I can think of, this is really frustrating.

Disable the screensaver or just change the time it shows up to 2-3 hours

I've been a fan of Media Player Classic, it and the K-Lite Codec Pack have been able to play everything I throw at it. I've used VLC player a long time ago, but for some reason could never get used to it.
Super casual.

But yes, just turn of your screensaver options while you watch a movie, it takes you two seconds to turn off and on
