HI Roger thank you for you great job, I need to switch off the display after some time, there are some function for do that ?

It is not possible to control power on/off/standby via composite video signal.

If I am wrong about that, please point me to an example and I would love to learn something new and maybe incorporate into this library.

To solve the stated problem, I suggest using an additional ESP32 GPIO pin to control display power. Perhaps something like Adafruit's controllable power switch? https://www.adafruit.com/product/2935
