MMM-voice ugly hdmi banner
-
Is there anyway to stop the hdmi no signal banner when you put the screen to sleep via voice, for some reason this can’t switch the tv that I’m using on and off it only cuts the Pi signal via hdmi, on my other Samsung tv it turns it completely off and on standby, but for now I just want the ugly banner removed and then I’ll probably install the screen buttons in the frame to turn it on from standby worst case scenario.

@dazza120 Hey Dazza! I’ve read somewhere on here, that you might be able the change it in the TV-settings somewhere. Try to grab your remote and see if there is something you can do on the TV firstly.
-
@dazza120 It could also be because your monitor doesn’t support CEC or it isn’t enabled. Try Googling CEC + your monitor brand and model.

@mdhenriksen hi thanks my monitor is actually a tv samsung ue32j510AKXXU
-
@mdhenriksen it switches on via my Apple TV, but not from the Pi, the sceen knows it’s there I have it linked as a settop box so it should be using the hdmi as it does with the Apple TV, for now just need the ugly no signal turning off
-
@mdhenriksen so I think I’m boned on this point it can put it to sleep ie just turning off the Pi hdmi rather than the signal to monitor not sure if that’s because I’m using the fork by @cowboysdude? Which I don’t think is the case, I’ll have to look into this some more but now I can actually revive it from no input detected, but the sleep and wake is what I’m after. The TV has a DVI hdmi connection and that is what I have used to rescue it from the HDMI no signal that I couldn’t revive it from.
-
@dazza120 the tv is an energystar device. which will show the ugly no input screen until the energyStar timeout (15 minutes) and then power off…
that is what the HIDE setting on my MMM-SleepWake module does. it blanks the screen, instead of turn off the signal.

@sdetweil cheers but I had to leave MMM-SleepWake as I didn’t have a clue how to install the motion project, the more I looked at it the more my tiny brain 🧠 started to smoke 🤯
-
@dazza120 https://motion-project.github.io/motion_build.html
To install via apt, open up a terminal window and type: sudo apt-get install motion -
@sdetweil said in MMM-voice ugly hdmi banner:
sudo apt-get install motion
Your joking! So is that the packaged installed with that command? As what I was looking at was totally different to this. Thanks for your help.
