Showing nothing on the screen when idle

Is there a way, preferably in BrightScript, for when no video is playing, that nothing is shown on the screen (i.e., nothing goes out the HDMI out), so that the monitor goes into standby?

Or is it a simple case of hiding the roVideoPlayer?

    BrightAuthor has a command which does just that: Enable monitor power save mode.

    Thank you.

    If BrightAuthor can do it, then it usually means that there is a BrightScript function to do it...and there is: roVideoMode -> SetPowerSaveMode.

    Never saw it before, so thank you for pointing me in the right direction.
