Prevent system from going to sleep when music is running

[peat80]

Is there a way to prevent the system from going to sleep when there is music playing in the background?

I have configured my gtv streamer to launch the screensaver after 5 mins and after 15 mins the system goes to sleep.

On the Shield TV there was an option to prevent system hibernation when there is music playing.
The Google TV Streamer sadly does not have such an option.

Is there a way to configure this via ADB or something?

Or would it be possible to add such a feature to Aerial Views?

So, the Shield has options that no other Android/Google TV device has, saldy. Also, from what I know, the Google TV devices are more aggressive about power saving and going to sleep (for apps and the system) - so I'm not sure there is an ADB command for it.

As I'm travelling at the moment, I would suggest searching (probably Reddit) for solutions for the Fire TV as I remember a lot of answers about that - oh, just popped into my head - maybe there is a 3rd party app the keep the device awake?

For Aerial Views, when it's running as a screensaver I don't think there's any way I can override the 'standby' setting. But if Aerial Views is started as an app, then "Test screensaver" is selected - that should keep running forever as it's simple a video player that has requested the screen to stay on (WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON)

There is setWakeMode() from ExoPlayer, but I've never used it, assumed it's for the phone.
