Screen recipe question

[Sheepiely]

In the ScreenManager recipe example, it uses vgencmd to turn on and off the screen. In MMM-GA, I can only use mode 4 (HDMI CEC) in config to turn off my screen. Vgencmd doesn’t work.

If I want to change the ScreenManager recipe, what exec command should I use instead of this?

shellExec: {
        exec: "vcgencmd display_power 0"
      }

Thanks.

Hi, I think this command will solve:

echo 'standby 0' | cec-client -s

So weird. That didn’t work but I eventually got vgencmd to work with this “/usr/bin/vcgencmd display_power 0”.

@bugsounet thanks.
