Now I understand this may be by design. Who wants the screen to go into low power mode during a set right? But when just idling for long periods (like doing a large database scan for instance) it would nice to have an option to allow screensaver/low display power state. Right now I am doing a scan but it could mean the system sitting there idle for a few hours and the less energy burned and time the VDJ image is on the screen the better.

If it's going to be several hours during the scan, poke the button and power off the monitor manually.

You could try if minimizing virtualdj works. (That would be recommended anyway if you just want to have it scanning in the background)

I have an issue with my AMD card whereby if I do that I cannot get the screen back when I power it back on and I have to reset the computer.
I tried minimizing VDJ and it still obeys the Multimedia setting in power options to NOT put the display to sleep. Sure I could turn that off for the Performance power setting. But that would affect things like video playback too. Not sure how to get around this one.
