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: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 v2.21on 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

@sdetweil
Thank you I will try… I ran:xrandr -q
which show HDMI-2 is what is currently plugged in… Will report back
-
@sdetweil
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…
-
@sdetweil
yep, understood… Still not able to wake up the screen… I tested the sensor with a meter and getting correct input voltage… is there anything I could be missing? -
@sdetweil
Found another post where you shared a link on how to run a PY script to test the sensor:https://projects.raspberrypi.org/en/projects/parent-detector/3
Going to try this later tonight.
