@swvalenti rename the current folder/directory out of the way, and git clone the remote repo (your fork or his ) again.

then get to the right branch, and then copy any modified files from the saved repo into this new copy,
once complete, remove the old saved directory

@swvalenti the master repo has master and develop as branches

@cr4z33 try adding them using the customCommands config setting (see the develop branch README.

I set the dev branch module like the following:

		{
			module: 'MMM-Remote-Control',
			disabled: false,
			customCommand: {
					monitorOnCommand: 'echo on 0 | cec-client -s -d 1',
					monitorOffCommand: 'echo standby 0 | cec-client -s -d 1',
					monitorStatusCommand: 'echo pow 0 | cec-client -s -d 1'
					}
		},

None of the commands are working. :confused_face:
I get the ‘Done’ message, but then nothing happens…

The syntax is 100% correct and working if used in the terminal.

Hi, I can’t see newsfeed options in Module Controls.
Can you help me please?

@mohace I can.

Double check if you edited anything or try deleting and reinstalling the module?

Hi @shbatm
I already asked this question on git issues on Jopyth’s version but I just figured out that you are the guy behind the custom menu!

Would it be possible to have an action item for a menu?

I mean, when you click on the menu, it opens the menu but also as the ability to trigger an action.

@Cr4z33
Please check the output of echo pow when your screen is on and off.
The original setting related to screen status into the node.js was NOK for me. (indeed, it is something like “ON” / “OFF” / “HDMI” etc…) but my TV was answering with “power status: on” and “power status: standby”.
So I had to modify line 610 and 620 with my own.

BTW, @shbatm , would be better if those parameters could be configurable also.
