    • MMM-Remote-Control can not turn ON monitor

      Hello,
      I have very little coding knowledge. So please bear with me.
      I have been trying to get MMM-Remote-Control to turn the monitor ON and Off. When I do not use customCommand, my monitor shows “No source” when turned off through the module menu. So I have to use customCommand and the cec utilities. With that, I can get the monitor to switch off, but can not get it to switch on. This is what my customCommand looks like:
      customCommand: {
      monitorONCommand: “sudo echo ‘on 0’ | cec-client -s -d 1”,
      monitorOffCommand: “sudo echo ‘standby 0’ | cec-client -s -d 1”,
      monitorStatusCommand: “sudo echo ‘pow 0’ | cec-client -s -d 1”,
      },
      If I send the command “sudo echo ‘on 0’ | cec-client -s -d 1” in the terminal, I can get the monitor to turn on, but can’t get it work through the remote-control. I have tried using vcgencmd but these commands don’t turn off the monitor in my case (the monitor just shows “No source”).
      Any help with this will be great. Thanks!
      Edit: I have tried to find solutions on the forum with no luck.
