Does anyone know of an alternative to the Jiggler program that I can run under Snow Leopard? Jiggler doesn't work under that OS version yet.
For those of you who don't know what Jiggler does, it monitors the use of specific programs, and if they are running, it periodically "jiggles" the mouse so that the screen saver doesn't turn on. I have set it up to "jiggle" the mouse when QuickTime is running, so that I don't have to manually disable the screen saver when I'm watching videos with QuickTime.
My goal is to automatically disable the screen saver when QuickTime is running, and to have it automatically enabled under all other circumstances. I don't care whether or not this is accomplished via "jiggling", as long as I can automatically cause the screen saver to be disabled in some way or another under this condition.
By the way, I know that I can view videos via VLC, and that this program can be configured to disable the screen saver. However, there are a number of cases where I want to use QuickTime to view my videos.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions you might be able to offer me.
