@cowboysdude Samsungs have an ECO option but I turned it off completely thinking it was going to get in the way… I’ll take a look at that to see if it will work the way yours does.

RE: Disable No-Singal output for any tv?
@cowboysdude but when the TV is woken up do to get the input banner on the screen for several seconds? That was the part I couldn’t completely get rid of.

RE: Disable No-Singal output for any tv?
@Desertswing I suppose it can be done either way. In my case I thought it was simpler to not install another module for this, as it really has nothing to do with MM.

RE: Disable No-Singal output for any tv?
@yawns I fought and fought and fought with this issue… even as far as contacting Samsung to see if there was a way via the service menu to get rid of it.
Short answer is there likely isn’t. If your TV is a Samsung then there definitely isn’t.
Eventually here’s what I ended up doing:
-
Using the script to shut down the HDMI gave me the same issue that you’re seeing. No way to disable that message.
-
I instead installed libCEC and I can successfully power the TV on and off, but whenever it comes back on I get a banner across the top of the picture with the current input and time. Stays on the screen for about 5 seconds. No way to disable this either…
-
I had an old USB UIRT unit sitting around from an old HTPC project. I use that combined with a library called LIRC to send the “exit” remote key command to my TV’s IR receiver after the TV comes out of standby. I had to play with the timing but I was able to get it so that the input banner is only on the screen briefly. Not perfect but I can live with it.
I’m setting up the script for the PIR sensors to operate independently of MagicMirror. That way MM can continue to do its thing in while the screen is in standby.
I hope this helps!

RE: AlexaPI and MagigMirror at same raspberry
@ezarlive Have you verified recording is working? If not, try this:

Hope this helps!

RE: AlexaPI and MagigMirror at same raspberry
@ezarlive my experience with using AlexaPi with a webcam was dismal. Are you also using the webcam for facial recognition? If so I think the video capture saturates the USB connection and leaves little left over for the microphone. I switched to using the Pi camera connected to the CSI header and a standalone USB microphone and my results are much better.

RE: MMM-MyCommute
@alberttwong There are many MANY modules that aren’t in that list… just browse the Modules section of this forum and you’ll find lots.
I’m assuming the “master” list needs to be maintained by the author of MagicMirror, while any of us can post to the forum.
Does anyone know if the “master” list is even maintained anymore, and how we get it updated with the missing modules?

RE: MMM-MyCommute
MMM-MyCommute has been updated with some new configuration options
-
You can now specify
hideDays
with a list of days during which the module is hidden. You specify an array of numbers, 0=Sunday, 6=Saturday. To hide it on weekends, for example, specifyhideDays: [0,6]
. -
startTime
,endTime
, andhideDays
parameters are now available as options for each individual destination. It should be noted that these parameters are superseded by the same ones specified in the main config. That means that if the main config parameters cause the module to be hidden as a whole, none of the destinations will be listed, regardless of their window settings.
Thanks for all your suggestions! This has evolved into a very robust module and I’ve learned quite a bit in the process.
Enjoy!
