      Hi@all,

      got a 7" Raspberry PI Touchscreen and everything is working well. But i can't turn it off after x minutes of inactivity and on when activity is back. The commands in the shell working without any troubles

      On:
      echo 0 > /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/bl_power
      Off:
      echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/rpi_backlight/bl_power

      So is there a way to integrate this commands in retropie? I only found a timer for inactivity with DIM and BLACK.

      Thanks for help

      Kindly regard
