Oh-oh...I just found that the setting doesn't work!

I tossed in a DVD today from a movie that skipped on my friends player
and while checking it the screen saver kicked in. I'm pretty sure it
worked before, but I don't normally watch movies on my computer, so
I'm not certain.

I double-checked the option, and even checked/applied and
unchecked/applied to make sure it was picked up by Media Player. But
it still lets the screen saver kick in.

Another bug for final?
