<![CDATA[Pi 3B+ HDMI turning off]]>Hi guys I’m nearing completion of my magic mirror but since this new update my magic mirror turns off the HDMI out put which displays the ugly No Signal, I need the HDMI to be powered all the time as I’m turning the monitor off so I just need a dumb HDMI. I have disabled the pi screen saver with Xscreensaver but this seems like a new thing added to the new update of MagicMirror. Can someone help it’s driving me mad as the only way to get it back is to reboot the PI

the OS may have a power save mode that turns off hdmi…
