      Well I’ve got the the module installed, and it puts the display to sleep but doesn’t wake the mirror up via motion I have the PS3eye! This is how I have my config file for the module, what have I not done?

      {
                              module: 'MMM-SleepWake',
                              delay:  15,      
                              source: 'external',
                              mode:  'PI',
                      },

        The readme is wrong.

        {
        module: 'MMM-SleepWake',
        config:
           {
           delay:  15,      
           source: 'external',
           mode:  'pi'
           }
        },

                @dazza120 u need to install the github motion project, and change its config to execute the sample script i provide. see the readme. my project does not detect the motion itself (some others read the camera data and determine motion), but uses an external (to MagicMirror) source

                    @dazza120 no. Motion is not related to MM. It can do all sorts of things. Record video, take snapshots, and a lot more. Supports just about every camera.

                    And has exits which can be used to inform others of motion, video files, …

                    So, follow it’s install instructions. Then edit /etc/motion/motion.conf, and update the lines I documented in the readme. This will call the script I provided to inform my module of motion(start and end)

                    U also customize the motion app on sensitivity, delay, etc etc. All things I have seen people ask about.

                      When I started working on my mirror project a few years ago, I had all I could do to learn node, angular, JavaScript, a no SQL database, and a ton of other stuff. I was using a pi, but didn’t have a PIR sensor, only a webcam.and the mirror was voice based, so i needed a mic

                      I found motion. And since have changed hardware, running on an odroid single board computer to get network and image display speed up.
                      Motion works on lots of platforms.
