I'm running Dolphin on Arch Linux and my power settings are set to turn off my screen after 10 minutes of inactivity. The problem is that when I play Dolphin on full screen it does not register my game-play in in Dolphin as activity and shuts my screen off after 10 minutes. How do I set Dolphin to prevent screen timeouts? Thanks.

This isn't specific to Dolphin, but if you install Caffeine you'll get a tidy way to temporarily disable the timeout.
OS: Windows 10 64 bit Professional
CPU: Intel i5 4670K @3.4GHz... for now @4.6GHz with a quick and dirty (yet stable) OC. May get faster in a bit before the end of time.
RAM: 16GB (Down from 24 GB after some was given to siblings)
GPU: Radeon Vega 56

I gave it a try but it did not work for me. I'm using Kodi to launch Dolphin and Kodi's power settings seem to ignore Caffeine. I set Caffeine to activate when detecting Dolphin, which it does, but the screen still goes to sleep after 5 minutes (my Kodi setting)
