@Che The real question is now:

What compositor do you use ? (X11, wayfire or labwc)

I purpose to use X11 compositor. (it’s the better choice for rpi 3b+)
Can you try this commands:

sudo raspi-config nonint do_wayland W1
sudo raspi-config nonint do_blanking 0

and reboot your pi

in your config of MMM-Pir, can you try mode 1 in Display block ?
and if not work try mode 2 in Display block

Tell me if better ?

I´ve changed to X11 via raspi config and did the commands. Now it seems working. Thanks so far, buddy.
BUT the Display rotated.
I´ve tried to change it via sudo nano/boot/firmware/config.txt and add display_rotate=1

Edit: Plugged in my USB mouse and changed it manually on the desktop.
I think its working smoothly again.

Merci bien, @bugsounet

@Che
Hi, just try to enable screen blancking with raspi-config tool

Thanks. Tried that. Did not work. :-(
The sensor is working because the countdown is visible and it´s reacting perfectly after detecting motion.
The screen just dont turn off - it stays black which wasn´t an issue before updating.
I´ve tried to

DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off

to see if I am able to turn it off manualy and via SSH. Output:

warning: output HDMI-1 not found; ignoring

Still a bit clueless how to fix that.

Is there another option I could try? I know the monitor is able to be switched off as this was working before.

I´ve updated my whole setup as I´ve missed out too many updates and decided to reset my SD Card and give it a fresh clean install.
Mostly the mirror is back on track but I am still struggling with my PIR-Sensor. I have used the the older version EXT-Pir which isn´t supported anymore.
Using this my monitor turned off completely. Now it only stays black.
This was my older config:

{
    module: 'EXT-Pir',
    disabled: false,
    config: {
      debug: false,
      gpio: 21,
      reverseValue: false
    }
  },
  {
    module: 'EXT-Screen',
    position: 'top_left',
    disabled: false,
    config: {
      debug: false,
      animateBody: true,
      delay: 60000,
      mode: 1,
      displayCounter: true,
      displayBar: true,
      displayAvailability: false,
      displayStyle: 'SemiCircle',
      displayLastPresence: true,
      lastPresenceTimeFormat: 'LL H:mm',
      detectorSleeping: false,
      gpio: 21,
      clearGpioValue: true,
      sound: false,
      touchMode: 3,
      ON: [],
      OFF: []
    }
  },

I am using the MMM-PIR now using this config:

module: 'MMM-Pir',
  position: 'top_left',
  config: {
    debug: false,
    Display: {
      timeout: 1 * 60 * 1000,
      animate: true,
      style: 3,
      colorFrom: "#FF0000",
      colorTo: "#00FF00",
      mode: 1,
      counter: true,
      lastPresence: false,
      lastPresenceTimeFormat: "LL H:mm",
      availability: false,
      autoDimmer: false,
      xrandrForceRotation: "normal",
      wrandrForceRotation: "normal",
      wrandrForceMode: null,
      waylandDisplayName: "wayland-0"
    },
    Pir: {
      mode: 1,
      gpio: 21
    },
    Motion: {
      deviceId: 0,
      captureIntervalTime: 1000,
      scoreThreshold: 100
    },
    Cron: {
      ON: [],
      OFF: []
    },
    Touch: {
      mode: 3
    },
    Governor: {
      sleeping: 4,
      working: 2
    },
    Sounds: {
      on: "open.mp3",
      off: "close.mp3"
    }
  }
},    {
  module: 'EXT-Screen',
  config: {
    detectorSleeping: false
  }

I remember that there was a difference between TVservices and vcgencmd.
I am using 64bit on a Pi3b.

Any ideas?
