As of MP 1.1.0. you can now select options to save your screen or reduce power consumption when MediaPortal is idle.

As you can see clearly in the screenshot, you can set the amount of time before MediaPortal is considered idle.
You can also choose whether you wish to blank the screen, or to reduce the framerate and save CPU and power.
As soon as you access MediaPortal again, it will revert from idle to 'active' mode.
