      I've noticed a strange behaviour on my recalbox (rasp 2, latest beta) when I leave it alone it enters standby but periodically (I would say every 10minutes or so) it wakes up (the screen turns on) for a minute and then goes in stand by again. How can I find what causes this?

        Maybe your problem is with your tv... can you try on another one?

          @paradadf my tv? Actually I am using an IPad 2 screen with a controller. I will try with another monitor.
          BTW Could it be possible to turn off the monitor when in standby rather than simply dim it or turn thr screen black?

            So you're using the virtual gamepad from your tablet ? That might bebthe origin of the problem

            Concerning turning off the screen, that could be possible. I found how to do it for pi. The problem is that we need something that would also work on odroid and PC

              Nope, sorry I wasn't clear. I've attached the Raspberry PI to a VS Display LCD controller via HDMI, the controller is attached to an iPad2 LCD display.

              Now, since I have the PI, could you tell me how to turn off the screen?

              Thanks for your help.

                You have to ssh :
                vcgencmd display_power 0 Turns off video output.
                vcgencmd display_power 1 Turns on video output.

                Couldn't try, but the source is reliable

                  sorry I don't get it. I would like to have the PI automatically turn off the screen instead of the screensaver (simply dim it or go black without turning the screen off).

                    @mc9625 then you need to edit the code of emulationstation.
