Disabling Screensaver for certain programs

I use the ATI DVD player that comes packaged with the radeon. The problem is that the screensaver still kicks in. I know in previous versions of windows there was a way to disable it. How can this be done in XP Pro?.

I do believe that NERO for one will turn off the Screen Saver until you close it, then it re-enables the screen saver to what had been set before hand.
 
I know longer use screen savers as I turn down the brightness on my monitor now
 
AlecStaar makes a good point about seeing if the app will stay on top and/or refreshes periodically. I think you may need to disable the screensaver while you using the player however
