Screen going black(Solved)

How do I keep the picture playing during a movie? My screen is going blank because of inactivity i guess. Something I can copy paste in the terminal. I am new to Linux and am off to a great start. I got it happy day people!

Make sure your screensaver is off, and check your power management settings..if that doesn't work..


Open a terminal window and enter the following command:
xset q
if the output has a section like this:
Screen Saver:
prefer blanking: yes allow exposures: yes
timeout: 600 cycle: 600
Just run the following command:
xset s 0 0
Then add to startup, Go to Menu>Applications>Preferences>Startup Applications-Click the 'Add' button
command field type in xset s 0 0 and close the box by clicking 'Add'.
