MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite does not switch HDMI off

blouzbee

all these modules and all these guides you can find online all fail to tell you that at some point a kernel or driver update broke vcgencmd and tvservice commands for the newer pis or Rasberry OS. I spent so many hours making mine work.

xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off

xrandr --output HDMI-1 --auto

these worked for me, maybe they’ll work for you, I dunno.

@blouzbee cool…

yeh tvservice went away in bullseye

they are trying to get rid of all the old ‘raspberry pi’ unique stuff to maintain

Seems that there is no way for me to swich off HDMI via PIR-Sensor :-(

Maybe I will find a way to do this with a python-Scrip out of MagicMirror but I´m a just a beginner and it seems to be not easy…

@Volkae did u see @JoeFranz post about changing the OS firmware down a couple levels?

@sdetweil
I will try to downgrade

Hello all,

I think I have restored the compatibility of MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite with Bullseye (lastest firmware). See issue on GitHub and more information in ReadMe

Can you install the testing version to confirm the resolution of this issue?

cd ~/MagicMirror/modules/MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite
git pull
git checkout testing

Thanks for your feedback!

@grena
Hey grena,
seems to work fine on my Raspi 3!!!
Thank you, great support!!!

@grena
Oh, now another problem:
After switching off HDMI by MMM-PIR-Sensor-Lite the livestream-picture from MMM-RTSPStream is not in the frame when HDMI is switched on again by PIR .

grena

@Volkae, have you updated the module from the testing branch since your last message that it worked?

Volkae

@grena
yes, I did but I did not run RTSPStream while running the testing branch, sorry.
