Hi all,

I am using piCorePlayer 6.1.0 on a Raspberry Pi ZeroW. I installed
Jivelite for displaying the "Now Playing" screen on a monitor or TV via
HDMI, and control piCorePlayer via an Android App or via a RF (USB)
remote control.

It appears that the HDMI output of my ZeroW stays active when I turn off
the player, also when the screensaver for the "player off state" set to
Display Off (via Jivelite Settings => Screen => Screensavers => When off
=> Display Off). When I turn Off the player via the Android App or the
Remote Control, the screen goes black, but the HDMI output stays active,
meaning that also the attached monitor stays turned on. In fact I don't
see a difference between screen saver settings "Blank Screen" and
"Display Off".

=> Can anybody tell it is possible to switch off the HDMI output when
turning off the player? If so, how?

PS1: I know that turning off the HDMI output gives only a small
reduction in current consumption of the Raspberry Pi. My main concern is
the power consumption of the attached monitor.
PS2: When I set HDMI power to "off" on the pCP Tweaks page, then the
HDMI output is switched off at the end of the boot process, and the
attached monitor goes into standby mode. This shows that the HDMI output
of the ZeroW can be switched off, only it does not happen when turning
off the player.
