Missing basic features!

Screenly is quite awesome but there are two features that is really lacks from a user standpoint.

  1. Orientation/Rotation of the screen. This is a super simple and basic modification of the /boot/config.txt so I don’t see why it was simple common sense to just integrate this into the settings page
  2. Being able to turn on/off the monitor at specific times (i.e. night mode). This is super simple to do using this script https://gist.github.com/AGWA/9874925

HI @doughnet. Thanks for the kind words. We’re happy to accept contributions for these features. The CEC feature is however something we have on the future backlog.

Regarding the turning off monitor, you dont need a script or get that complicated, you simply create a cronjob with the following command to turn off: vcgencmd display_power 0
and to turn on vcgencmd display_power 1
