Hi reaper81,
same question from my site:
how did you attach the mirror to the wooden frame to make it look frameless? Can you provide us some pictures and tipps?

@reaper81:
What kind of PIR do you use? Maybe a HC-SR501?
And what happens, if the screen comes back from standby? Did a message e. g. “HDMI” or similar appear on the screen?

@nh_790
I’m also looking for a new screen.
But i need a 32’', really flat and, because i’ll use a PIR to send the monitor to standby off/on, without any logo or information “Signal lost/ Signal found” or similar …

Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Steve,

did you find one?
I’ve got the same problem …

Thanks MyMirror

@Atteraxol
Did you find a monitor?
I have the same problem with my 32’’ screen.
HDMI logo and “no signal” … bad :-(

You can see it here :-(

Merry xmas :-),

thanks … your script works - my monitor not really :-(
If your script power off HDMI i’ll get a “HDMI”-Logo and “no Signal” … bad :-(
It seems that i have to buy a different screen.
Which one do you use? Is it available as 32’’ ?

Hi @ryck,

i think it is python …
I just get “Python 2 (IDLE)” on my menue.
I’ll try to force an update with
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install --reinstall python3
but, after reboot, nothing happens. I’ve got just python2 on my menue.
…
(After searching in the main menue Editor …)
OK - found python3 but without IDLE) - but this should not be the problem, or?
But if it is “easy” to install the IDLE - can you give me a hint?

I use pin 14 - as in the pir.py written - nothing happens … :-(

I think, it is the missing line 7 in the pir.py.
You wrote:
You have to change line 7 to the location of the pir.py file like this:
ExecStart=/usr/bin/python /path/to/your/pir.py

But in my pir.py i didn’t find a line like this …
Can you help me?

Thanks

Hey ryck, thanks for the details.
Did your monitor shows information like “no HMDI found” or “lost signal” or anything like this, when the PIR turns off the screen?
If not … what have you done to suppress the text/infos?
Or is your monitor smart enough to do that for you?

Hi cowboysdude,

thanks for the hint. After trying (without success) it shows me the way to this autostart:

/home/pi/.config/lxsession/LXDE-pi/autostart
Where i have to do the same.
I got the infos from here: http://www.small-blog.de/raspberry-pi-bildschirmschoner-ausschalten/

Now it works.
Thanks
