in reply to Keep the playback rolling (Win32)

In doing something similar I found that you don't have to visibily move the mouse pointer to keep the screensaver at bay (although you obviously lose your cool diamond effect!) 
use Win32::GuiTest qw(SendMouseMoveRel);

while (1) {
    SendMouseMoveRel(0,0);
    sleep 1;        
}
