    Make trials with your terminal :

    • Turn screen on by pasting that in your terminal : echo on 0 | cec-client -s -d 1
    • Check the feedback status sent by the TV by putting that in terminal : echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1
    • Remind the result

    Do exactly the same with turn off :

    • Turn screen on by pasting that in your terminal : echo standby 0 | cec-client -s -d 1
    • Check the feedback status sent by the TV by putting that in terminal : echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1
    • Remind the result

    The 2 results you will get should be updated in node.js line 610 / 620.

      @bolish as I wrote before that’s EXACTLY what I already did. ;)

      Terminal commands work straight away while the same commands in MMM-Remote-Control have no effect when used by tapping the buttons in the menu.

        So, the ouput you got in the terminal by sending the “pow 0” command is in line with what is written into node helper.js line 610 / 620?

            Strange, it worked for me… FMI, what output do you get in the terminal with “echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1”.
            When the screen is ON? When the screen is “OFF”?

              @bolish depending wheter the TV is on or off it says power status: on or power status: standby.

                @Cr4z33 same as me…let’s try to cross check our node helper .js to see if they are written the same on line 610 and 620.

                  @bolish wait cannot remember if I am using perhaps the developer version, but line numbers are different.

                  Mine are 601 (on), 604 (off) and 607 (status).

                    This is what I did on my side :

                                if (["MONITORTOGGLE", "MONITORSTATUS", "MONITORON"].indexOf(action) !== -1) {
                                    screenStatus = exec(monitorStatusCommand, opts, (error, stdout, stderr) => {
                                        if (stdout.indexOf("TV is off") !== -1 || stdout.indexOf("false") !== -1) { // REPLACE "TV is off" or "false" by "power status: standby"
                                            // Screen is OFF, turn it ON
                                            status = "off";
                                            if (action === "MONITORTOGGLE" || action === "MONITORON") {
                                                exec(monitorOnCommand, opts, (error, stdout, stderr) => {
                                                    this.checkForExecError(error, stdout, stderr, res, { monitor: "on" });
                                                });
                                                this.sendSocketNotification("USER_PRESENCE", true);
                                                return;
                                            }
                                        } else if (stdout.indexOf("HDMI") !== -1 || stdout.indexOf("true") !== -1) { // REPLACE "HDMI" OR "true" by "power status: on"
                                            // Screen is ON, turn it OFF
                                            status = "on";
                                            if (action === "MONITORTOGGLE") {
                                                this.monitorControl("MONITOROFF", opts, res);
                                                return;
                    

                    At least this is what worked for me.

                      @bolish what about the previous lines?

                      I thought that was the part to edit by replacing monitor commands with HDMI CEC ones like mines?

                              monitorControl: function(action, opts, res) {
                                  let status = "unknown";
                                  let monitorOnCommand = (this.initialized && "monitorOnCommand" in this.thisConfig.customCommand) ?
                                      this.thisConfig.customCommand.monitorOnCommand :
                                      "echo on 0 | cec-client -s -d 1";
                                  let monitorOffCommand = (this.initialized && "monitorOffCommand" in this.thisConfig.customCommand) ?
                                      this.thisConfig.customCommand.monitorOffCommand :
                                      "echo standby 0 | cec-client -s -d 1";
                                  let monitorStatusCommand = (this.initialized && "monitorStatusCommand" in this.thisConfig.customCommand) ?
                                      this.thisConfig.customCommand.monitorStatusCommand :
                                      "echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1";
