Is there a way to temporarily disable a module?

      @sdetweil that’s right.
      I’m going to guess there is no way to do it.

          @sdetweil Because im trying to have the PIR sensor not turn off the screen during certain times. Hiding the module doesnt stop it from working.

            @teitlebot sorry, do not understand…

            those are two different things…

            i hide modules to make my screen sleep… (can’t power off tv)…

            you could extend the PIR module to ignore the sensor during the time u want it to stay on

              @sdetweil how would I extend the module? I’m not really a coder but I can follow a guide.

                @teitlebot you would have to add some code the check the current time against a stat/stop time you would add to the configuration.

                  Hi,

                  Did anyone find a solution to this ?

                  I’m looking to use a PIR so that if it detects motion it “Deactivates” the “MMM-PlexSlideshow” module.

                  Then when it doesnt detect motion it will reactivate the “MMM-PlexSlideshow” module to create a digital picture frame when someone doesnt step in front of the mirror.

                  Cheers

                  D

                    @BigDanT i have not seen such a thing…

                    also, most of the image displaying modules display in the background ‘under’ the other modules,
                    you appear to want it ABOVE the other modules, hiding them… not seen any capable of doing that

                      @BigDanT it might not be too hard…

                      the PIR type modules send a notification 'USER_PRESENCE true/false when a user is detected or not

                      so, if u can change the image handler module to position:‘foreground’, and add a tiny bit of code,

                      in the notificationRecieved function add a handler for the user_presence message, if true, this.hide() (allow other module content to show thru)
                      otherwise this.show() (hide everything behind)
