I have used the below scripts to turn my HDMI output on and off on schedule when using the WAYLAND compositor in Raspberry Pi OS:
turn_off_monitor_WAYLAND.shturn_on_monitor_WAYLAND.shThe scripts are triggered by crontab jobs to turn the monitor off at night and back on in the morning.
The October 2024 Release of Raspberry Pi OS comes with a new Labwc / Raindrop compositor and the above scripts obviously do not work when using this compositor. I'd like to stick with using the new Labwc / Raindrop compositor going forward and have switched to that compositor using the raspi-config tool.
I've made sure I've installed the new raindrop screen configuration tool by following the guide at https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/a-new- ... rry-pi-os/.
Can someone please tell me what the equivalent command line options are with the new raindrop tool to turn the HDMI output on or off (similar to the old xrandr/arandr/wlr-randr tools).
