Describe the Bug

First, Ive notice that when using sunshine, in the first second you open Rivatuner in the front window (everything ok if its running in the background), sunshine lose control with the host pc. The connection still functionable but not its control with the mouse.
Secondly, if the screen is not turned on (in the HOST pc) or the screen saver activates so it turn off the screen... sunshine shows a black screen too and there is no way to sleep it out.

Expected Behavior

Maybe mantain control over the remote pc when the screen goes off like in Team viewer?

I'm interested in this too, I have two computers connected to the same screen, I'm using moonlight to control the second one.

Most of the time the screen is just black, I have to change the input of the lcd to go on my second computer, it's "waking up" the video, then moonlight is working perfectly fine from my first computer.

May a prepcmd could do the trick, didn't find any process to "wake" video

+1 to this. Turning the screen off could lead to a better battery life in notebooks. Currently, shutting down the screen only delivers a black screen to Moonlight, but the controls and sounds works perfectly.

Maybe mantain control over the remote pc when the screen goes off like in Team viewer?

TeamViewer does some black magic to make the screen work while is off and I would like for Sunshine to implement this.

Note aside, this (at least theoretically) has the potential to make some crazy setups, like carring a gaming notebook in a backpack while playing in your phone (I wouldn't recommend this because of airflow, but the possibility is there).
