When I'm watching a film in Mythtv the screen turns to black every 10 – 15 mins and I have to log back into Ubuntu. Very annoying!
How do I disable the black screen / screensaver / logout in Unity?
There no longer seems to be any options to turn the screen saver off as there were in Ubuntu prior to Unity.

Go to System Settings...Brightness and Lock:
The default screensaver idle time is 10 minutes, and the screen is locked once the screensaver activates:
You can adjust the idle time (or disable the screensaver), and also disable the lock:
Simply close Brightness and Lock to apply the new settings.
