@trividar @cowboysdude paviro is also using the same code lines in his pir sensor module and a user had similar issues, maybe his solution also work for you

@strawberry-3-141 unfortunately it didn’t work for me;0( but thanks for your input.

@trividar I thought the commands are working for you, as you pointed out 2 hours ago? I was struggling with this myself for a seperate module, it didn’t work in the terminal i had to login at tty6 or with the solution I posted I got weird colors and a zoom effect on my screen, but in the node_helper it worked at least for me.

@strawberry-3-141 This two things work for me if i put it in the terminal:
Switch off:
/opt/vc/bin/tvservice -o
Switch-on:
/opt/vc/bin/tvservice --preferred && sudo chvt 6 && sudo chvt 7

But not the module. I tried to change node_helper, but if I tried to start pm2 start mm.sh i got just a white screen. Sorry I’m not a coder, I just start to learn.

@trividar can you post your pm2 logs

[trividar]

I will… I will be in one hour at home and I will post it.

[trividar]

my logs without any changes:

If I put in the therminal:

/opt/vc/bin/tvservice --preferred && sudo chvt 6 && sudo chvt 7

my monitor turn on and my mirror work…

Was your monitor on when you were starting the magic mirror?
