As a video watcher, I get rather agitated when my screen dims and then turns off while I am watching something. I do not want to be interrupted every 10 minutes or so and have to move the mouse. I want to make it a more convenient amount of time like an hour or so. How would I go about doing this.

Windows user, Linux lover.
