      My MM works fine but I have a problem using MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite. The modul is running, the countdown is shown on the MM but when the countdown shows 0 it does not switch HDMI off so the monitor is still alive.

      What can I do??

        @Volkae this module requires python3, which is not installed by default… and not listed in the requirements

          Python3 was already installed (up to date).
          Module seems to work fine but does not switch HDMI off…

            @Volkae so have u tried the command it uses, on the terminal window

            from the code

            /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0
            

            make sure to do this over ssh, so you can turn it back on

            /usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 1

              display_power=1

              HDMI is still alive…

                @Volkae those two were off and on

                if you do off

                does it turn off?

                    @Volkae works perfectly on my pi 4…

                    what pi version are you using?
