      So basically I have been trying the whole day to get any motion detection module to work with CEC. I used to have a normal pc screen and everything worked fine, but it broke so I am now trying to use an old TV that has CEC. But I can’t get any of the module that supports CEC to work, neither with a pir or a webcam.
      So, do any of you have functioning Motion detection with CEC on a TV and could give me tips and tricks which modules work and what your setup is?

        @arynio does the cec command work from the command line?

        once u get that to work find module that will let u specify the commands, or edit the code

          @sdetweil Yes that works, but I am an absolute coding noob, so I don’t know how to edit code or anything

            @arynio all the pir modules do the same thing

            the node_helper.js issues a command to turn off the display and another to turn it back on

            look at the code and you will see a text string

            ‘something …’
            (single or double quotes)

            change the string to what you tested works for each
