Having had issues with Pi5 I went back to Pi4b. MMM-PIR works great with pi 4, blanking the screen after timer expires and resetting once presence is detected.
The only issue I have is when the screen is blanked, the monitor backlight remains on, visible at nightnas a glow, the monitor remains powered up, I would have expected it to go into standby?

Thx for the info, I guess a lot of the modules require reworking for the Pi 5.
Unfortunately I do not have the ability, totally new to the Pi and programming.

@eyesallin
I’m beginning to think that all this is Pi 5 related.
Also changing to mode 10 as previously stated screws with the weather modules which don’t load. Remove MMM-PIR from config and everything works fine.
It doesn’t help that I’m completely new to all this.

@bugsounet Apologies but I don’t understand what you are asking for?

50% unfortunately the top error is still there, any other help would be appreciated.

Hi
I’m completely new to this.
I have a Pi 5 on Magicmirror.
I installed MMM-Pir when ir runs the countdown but it displays 2 errors top of screen, pir has no effect countdown expires and turns of the screen.
Unable to recover without rebooting
Errors on screen :
EINVAL: Invalid argument, write
Command failed: /usr/bin/vcgencommand display_power

Hi I’m a nooby, I’m seeing the same errors in my startup but MM still runs OK. The only reason I found it was because I can’t get the MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast to display just says loading?
I’m wondering now if the error has nothing to do with module running.
