Jellyin app on steam deck allows screen to dim
The jellyfin app (self hosted video streaming) app on steam deck (installed via desktop mode->discovery as a flat pack) doesn't seem to register as 'playing' with the os. The screen will dim after a few mins.
I'm 'playing' the jellyfin app as a non steam game in game mode.
I know I can disable screen dimming in the settings but is there a way to have it auto detect when a video is playing and prevent the screen from dimming?

Weird, I don't seem to have this issue.. I watch movies on the Jellyfin App on Game Mode and never had issue... maybe I disabled the screen dimming, but at least it is not putting itself to sleep
Im guessing you disabled it? On mine the screen dims and it will go to sleep based on the settings/timings.
Just checked, it is enabled, 15 m when plugged in and 5 min when unpplugged, I'll need to try it again later, for now it is plugged in and plugged to a TV to watch movies
At least that's promising. Please let me know if you did anything different.
I just installed in desktop mode via discovery (the flat pack version I think). Then i added the 'game' to the steam menu and that was it. I launch the 'game' in steam mode.
If there is something else you're doing I'd love to know because I can't find anything else on Google. Thanks.
Just tried again and the screen does dimm when unpplugged...
