This is on sway, the popular wayland compositor.

kodi and mpv both emit an idle-inhibit signal when playing and stop the screensaver cutting in.

  • Platform:
    Linux nina 5.7.9-100.fc31.x86_64 Added fix for Ticket 8182 #1 SMP Fri Jul 17 17:18:38 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

  • MythTV version:
    mythtv-frontend-31.0-9.20200829gitab0c38a476.fc31.x86_64

  • Package version:

  • Component:
    mythfrontend

What steps will reproduce the bug?

While running under sway, have a idle timer running like so:

swayidle -w timeout 10 swaymsg 'output * dpms off' resume swaymsg 'output * dpms on'

Then start a mythtv playback and wait for the screen to blank.

What is the expected behaviour?

mythtv should inhibit the idle timer - kodi and mpv do it correctly.

What do you see instead?

The screen blanks until the mouse is moved or a key is pressed

configure: Add initial support for 'waylandextras'

- this looks for the wayland client libs and headers - which we need if
we are to access Wayland directly

MythPainterWindow: Set the Wayland opaque region on each resizeEvent
1d7da6d 
- this should *help* with Wayland opacity issues but is not a complete
cure. Best case scenario; it also improves performance (as the
compositor knows it only needs to render the MythTV main window and
nothing else)

@bhepple This appears to be working correctly in master (but does need a custom build). Any problems, please open a new ticket. Thanks for reporting.
