Hi folks, I am trying to figure out how to prevent the I3lock and xautolock to suspend while I watching a movie or having full screen while watching youtube.

My system is FreeBSD 13.1 with I3wm



in my .config/i3/config I have the following

Code: 
exec --no-startup-id xautolock -time 10  -locker "i3lock -t -i ~/Pictures/somepicture.png"
exec --no-startup-id xset dpms 900

basically I want to lock the screen when idle for 10 minustes then in 15 minutes will shutdown displays. All works fine but; it goes into locked screen while watching youtube or playing audio.

Anyone have a solution for this ?
