    My MM works fine but I have a problem using MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite. The modul is running, the countdown is shown on the MM but when the countdown shows 0 it does not switch HDMI off so the monitor is still alive.

    What can I do??

      @Volkae this module requires python3, which is not installed by default… and not listed in the requirements

        Python3 was already installed (up to date).
        Module seems to work fine but does not switch HDMI off…

          @Volkae so have u tried the command it uses, on the terminal window

          from the code

          /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0
          

          make sure to do this over ssh, so you can turn it back on

          /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 1

            then it shows me:

            display_power=1

            HDMI is still alive…

              @Volkae those two were off and on

              if you do off

              does it turn off?

                  @Volkae works perfectly on my pi 4…

                  what pi version are you using?
