I created powersaving program for automatically start the RaspberryPi, if a motion ist detected via PIR-sensor and shut down after a waiting time. It’s at Git and I want to share it with you. I would be happy if you give me Feedback. https://github.com/ChrisBaehrig/MM-PIR-motion-poweron

@anthem212 well there are three commands to turn off the output vcgencmd dpms these two turn off the HDMI port, NOT the monitor/tv and cec-client this turns off the monitor/tv IF it supports the cec command(correctly) and then you would need a people sensor, most use use infrared, as it’s ‘easy’. there are modules that put all this together. search here for MMM-PIR Now to get your speed requirements will be a little harder. I use TV’s for my two main mirror systems. 43 and 55 in. one supports cec, the other doesn’t. when I turn off the HDMI port on both, they put up a big NO INPUT screen , and power off after 15 minutes. that is energy star compliant. but you can’t turn them on via software if it supports cec, then maybe you can turn off/on via software. mine is inconsistent. always can turn on, but not off on is the same as pushing the button, takes 15 seconds, displays the product logo and all that. I gave up, and just hide the mm content and leave the TV’s on. the one in the hall I call the nightlight! I also use a webcam for motion detection, instead of pir, cause that’s what I had at the time as yours is a 4k tv, I’m guessing it supports cec install the cec-utils package on pi sudo apt install cec-utils this also only works on my pi 4. not pi3.

so far so good, no problems. so i can call it a fix for me. Thanks

@randomnoise said in PIR-Sensor - put your mirror to sleep if not used: exec(“xdotool key space”); //simulate spacebar to disable screensaver. Needs xdotool to be installed Hello Randomnoise; So you did exactly what I am looking to do. Can you elaborate on how to configure this so my PIR will turn off the screen saver? I’ve already installed Xdotool, but I don’t know where to go from there.
