    Oh, now another problem:
    After switching off HDMI by MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite the livestream-picture from MMM-RTSPStream is not in the frame when HDMI is switched on again by PIR .

      @Volkae, have you updated the module from the testing branch since your last message that it worked?

          @Volkae said in MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite does not switch HDMI off:

          yes, I did but I did not run RTSPStream while running the testing branch, sorry.

          No problem, I’ll try to reproduce this issue!

          MMM-RTSPStream is no longer being actively developed :neutral_face:
          So, I refer you to the advice of the author of MMM-RTSPStream to find another solution:

          :warning: This module is no longer being actively developed. I will accept PRs and leave the repo active, but will not be directly supporting any issues. If anyone is interested in assuming ownership of the module, please contact @shbatm. :warning:

          Why?

          I am no longer using this module on my own mirror. After several years, I found that I use the snapshots much more frequently than I streamed the actual cameras, which can be performed by much simpler modules and methods. To enable streaming, WebRTC (like MMM-HomeAssistant-WebRTC) is a newer and better standard with much lower server overhead and latency for delivering RTSP Streams to the frontend than any of the options used here, in the future, this will be the method I focus on and I will not try to shoehorn another technology into this module.

              Hello Grena… Hoping you or someone maybe able to help. I had to rebuild my MM (using Pi4b). With regards to using a PIR sensor, I’m using a doppler sensor vs. a PIR sensor using the following build thread:

              https://forum.magicmirror.builders/topic/11704/update-replaced-my-pir-sensor-with-a-doppler-microwave-sensor?page=1

              Everything prior to rebuild worked great… The screen would go into stand-by after 2 mins and flip back on when the sensor picked up presence. The repo I had, originally, used:

              https://github.com/paviro/MMM-PIR-Sensor

              is no longer supported so I didn’t clone it. Instead, I used yours but having issues getting it to work. I can see the countdown on the screen but nothing happens. I unplugged the doppler sensor but no change. Any ideas? I’m running

              Debian v11
              MM v2.21

              on pi4b. Any help is greatly appreciated

                @dkhorse74 another user noticed this only worked for the 1st HDMI port on the pi4.

                had to change the code in the node_helper.js for the second port

                    that did it! Screen goes to sleep… now need to figure out how to get the doppler sensor to “wake-up” the monitor

                      @dkhorse74 the module turns it back on… another place for the hdmi port…

                      the sensor just signals movement, usually a high signal…

                      the module then signals wake up and starts a time…

                      no more high signals, then sleep…
