@sdetweil It’s running the program but the commands to control the monitor are ignored, The program is logging the activity. Here is the scenario that works:

Boot the Pi
Connect via SSH and issue command “pm2 stop mm”
Connect directly to the Pi using a connected keyboard and start my PIR program, then enter “pm2 start mm”

This works but is obviously inconvenient as I need to have a keyboard connected to the Magic Mirror. I’m going to see if I can run my program from crontab under the “pi” account. Maybe that’s the issue.

I tried putting the command in /home/pi/mm.sh but it’s not working.

@sdetweil
$ pm2 status

│ id │ name  │ mode     │ ↺   │ status    │ cpu     │ memory

@sdetweil I followed the instructions for the manual install and I’m using pm2. MagicMirror is working as expected, but I just can’t get my python script which stops and starts the monitor based on input from a PIR sensor to work unless I stop Magic Mirror, start my program, and then restart MagicMirror.

At this point I’m thinking of starting from scratch with the previous version of Raspberry Pi OS (Buster) which I believe works with a PIR module for Magic Mirror. That uses TVservice which does not work with Bullseye.

@sdetweil I don’t know why but my previous reply was rejected. I added my script to the mm.sh script but I believe that is legacy code that doesn’t get executed. This is the first line of that file:" # This file is still here to keep PM2 working on older installations."

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I have a python program that turns the monitor off and on. It works, but not when Magic Mirror is running. I’ve tried every trick I’ve found but nothing works. I’m using “sudo xrandr --output HDMI-2 --off” to turn it off and “sudo xrandr --output HDMI-2 --auto” to turn it on. Tvservice doesn’t work in Bullseye.

Interestingly, if I stop Magic Mirror with “pm2 stop mm” from an ssh session, start my python program, and then restart Magic Mirror (“pm2 start mm”) the PIR program works as expected.

Where is MagicMirror started and is there a way to insert my program start command before MM starts? Starting my program in crontab @reboot doesn’t work.

@sdetweil Thanks. Is there a workaround?

Hi. I’m brand new to MagicMirror and have set it up mostly with defaults. I’m using the default US Holiday calendar. Yesterday it correctly showed that the next day was Father’s Day. Today it’s skipping over it and showing the next holiday as Independence day. I had assumed that it would show Father’s Day as “Today”, but it’s not. I tried playing around with some of the settings in calendar.js but nothing has worked. I’m sure it’s something simple but I haven’t found a solution via search. Any suggestions?
