      @kayakbabe There are no errors in the logs, nothing was changed in MM. Otherwise the screen was always black when MM started, and the monitor only came on after there was movement in front of the PIR sensor. Now the picture is there right after the start and the monitor no longer goes into standby. So I think it must be something to do with Raspian. Or maybe Electron? I have no idea what happened there… :-(

            @JoeFranz I can recommend these two modules for the PIR (I just installed them, they also work with the S.O. bullseye):

            MMM-GPIO-Notifications: https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-GPIO-Notifications
            MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification: https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-Screen-Powersave-Notification

              @Egnos Doesn’t work either, the monitor doesn’t go into standby :-( The Raspbian screensaver function does not seem to work. Can this be reinstalled?

                @JoeFranz have you tried to run the two modules following this guide written by @wishmaster270 ?
                https://github.com/Tom-Hirschberger/MMM-GPIO-Notifications/blob/master/examples/HC-SR501/HC-SR501-GPIO4-README-EN.md

                Which PIR sensor do you have?

                    Have you checked that the PIR is on the correct pins of the GPIO?

                        @JoeFranz and does it works correctly outside mm?

                        there are python scripts that will show it working
