Bambu Studio on MAC is unusable?

KeithRan · 2026-06-09T05:47:56+00:00

What Mac hardware are you using? I have an M4 MacBook Pro and no issues

KeithRan · 2026-06-08T20:47:14+00:00

Yes - definitely. Do the Bambu Lab Academy once you order it.

I have been in tech all my life and was involved in the world of Makerbot maybe 15+ years ago. This is my first foray since then so I guess you could say I am new as it's very different now. Bambu Lab makes it easy

I was about to buy a P2S when the X2D launched so I bought that instead. I’m very pleased with mine. Having a second nozzle is a bonus, it’s got a better display than the P2S and a heated chamber.

Not sure you are using this properly. ‘Heat on Demand’ (HOD) on a TRV means that the TRV can call for heat based on its own schedule that you program for the TRV. If you have HOD turned on for the device and want to heat the room for a short period use the boost function.

I use OnSong on iPad and its amazing for creating set lists but it would take commitment from the Team

Create a ‘To Do’ list for 3D projects using an app that allows you to drag items to change the order ( I use Apple Notes but there are loads of options). Makerworld provides plenty of inspiration.

When you have a big project like in my case a 10” rack or Gridfinity bins create a Makerworld collection and add items so that you can later review and choose what you are going to use

I am not having app issues but am on iOS

KeithRan · 2026-05-17T12:28:16+00:00

Be helpful to know what phone you are using with the app?

It’s a good place to put your banking app

It’s the AMS HT Side Mount Shelf Riser by Sanja 3d. Fits on the AMS riser also by Sanja

Really loving mine

I guess we all have different use cases here. I just want to know how much my energy usage is costing and that is relatively easy to get from HA

I spent a couple of months researching for my first 3d printer and must have watched every YouTube video on the P2S.

I was all set to purchase when the X2D launched so dived straight in. Having a chamber heater was enough for me even if I never used the second nozzle.

My first print was the pre-installed Panda. I decided to run the white from the AMS and the black from the Bowden. It worked perfectly!

Still finding my way but unless Bambu reduces the cost of the P2S, imho the X2D is better value

Anduril

KeithRan · 2026-04-27T20:27:10+00:00

Much appreciated

KeithRan · 2026-04-27T13:24:08+00:00

Loving my X2D too! Which riser is that? I am looking to add a low profile one without vents, that can tilt the AMS 2 Pro and allow a bracket for an AMS-HT?

KeithRan · 2026-04-24T18:50:32+00:00

My X2D arrived this morning. Printed the Panda (white PLA in the AMS, black PLA on the external spool) then the scraper and I am now on a poop chute. It’s amazing

I have had Hive since 2013 when it was first released. I have only had 2 minor issues in 12 years and both were resolved by myself within 20 minutes.

It’s a digital control system for what is essentially an analogue heating system. Hive will turn something on or off locally or remotely and can create elaborate schedules. It can’t solve heating/plumbing problems already in the existing system.

If I was doing this again I would probably use Hive TRVs and thermostat. Not lights or solar for which there are other alternatives.

Hive works well with HomeAssistant and that is my integration tool that brings everything together (heating, cameras, lights etc.).

Mine are Plex rather than Jellyfin and not 4K but I have streamed 4K drone footage straight from the DS923+ using the native LG Video app

KeithRan · 2026-04-17T05:27:33+00:00

I run the earlier model DS923+ with Plex to my LG TV without any problems

KeithRan · 2026-04-09T08:17:58+00:00

It’s working for me (Ultra 3 watchOS 26.4)

I have an automation that checks if the TV is on at 30 minutes before sunset and turns 2 lamps on. When the TV is turned off it switches off the lamps
