I want to use KDE Power Saving capabilities on my Desktop computer, such as suspend and screen-off.But, I want these capabilities be enabled only when some programs aren't running; for instance, I want the screen to remain awake while I am playing a movie with vlc or mplayer.For some other programs such as music players (clementine), vms (vmware), torrents (ktorrent), there's no problem turning the screen off, but it is (obviously) not great if the system goes to sleep.I want to be able to select which programs can suspend KDE's power-saving.
How can I ignore KDE's power-saving features for certain programs?
