So. I came home after work frustrated that it didn’t work.
After connecting another HDMI cable everything is working as expected 🙄.
I had a MicroHDMI to HDMI convertor and a HDMI cable after that.
I ordered a Micro to HDMI so i could get rid of the convertor.
Strange enough it is working with the convertor cable.
Thanks for helping!. I like the ideas.
After some searching i found something interesting!.
At this page they have a tutorial for using HDMI-CEC.
Following this tutorial it was exactly what i was looking for.
Except the time the TV needs to start it works like a champ :)
@earlman Can we get that wallpaper :astonished_face: ?? (with the mountain)
Weird. I switched back to a Pi3 and it’s working fine now.
Connected it with a HDMI<>HDMI cable to the HDMI Arc port on the TV. The TV instantly popped up with a CEC connected Raspberry.
Left it for over a night and just now it perfectly started.
I will. But at the moment it’s turned sideways on a bed ;)
The screen res. of this monitor is 1920x1080 which is the same as the monitor i have so there is no extra space. It’s just that my parents can read it :P
When all is finished and i like it, it might swap it for a 4K monitor to add some more features into it.
Many thanks!.
That seemed to work so far :) !
Maybe it’s just as it should, but when i give mm.sh a restart, i see what it looks like 3 “mm” processes
Hello :) ,
My MagicMirror has been running smooth for about two months.
Just recently, my Newfeed and Bring module have stopped updating.
When i use “pm2 log” i get the following error’s, but only from the Bring module.

reloadInterval: 780000, // 13 minuten
}
What am i missing?
@sdetweil
No. When i just leave it on the raspbian screen it stays on.
I’m going to think it has something to do with NewPir V3 for my PIR sensor, but don’t know how to rule that out.
@sdetweil
Screen blanking is off.
I also tried to install XScreensaver and disable that. It looked like it worked but a few days later it doesn’t.
Yes. If i move the mouse the screen lights up and i see the mouse. If i then leave it it dissapears and the screen goes black again.
Executed the script with the command. Does is need to show something on screen?. It just goes to the next line:
Evening All :) ,
Since the day i newly installed my MagicMirror i’m havind a weird issue i can’t explan.
It starts when the screen is on. The motion sensor detects motion and restarts the timer. All fine so far. When the timer runs out (30 minutes ) the screen get’s turned off by HDMI-CEC.
So far so good.
When i walk in front of the sensor some time later, the screen turns as i see the channel notification in the upper corner of the screen. After that it turns black.
It looks like MagicMirror is in some kind a sleep mode or something. I disabled screensaver etc.
sudo nano /etc/xdg/lxsession/LXDE/autostart
Inside:
@lxpanel --profile LXDE
@pcmanfm --desktop --profile LXDE
@xscreensaver -no-splash
@xset s off # don't activate screensaver
@xset -dpms # disable DPMS (Energy Star) features.
@xset s noblank # don't blank the video device
@sdetweil
My bad. Got it. It was there all the time, but the folder was just not showing :)
@sdetweil
Saw that ;). But there are 100 people all telling a different command :). You know the correct one for v2.17.1?
@sdetweil
Do you know of a way to git clone a specific version of MagicMirror. It’s easier to roll-back i quess and wait for it to be fixed :)
