Can you be more specific with your software of choice - are you talking about browser or some dedicated player?

he's trying to bait people into posting instructions on how to fix shitty desktop environments that don't already automatically detect fullscreen/video applications (such as mpv, vlc, or html5/flash video) and prevent power management settings so he can reply with ">editing conf files >current year" or something retarded
just ignore him, save in every field, and go on with your life
