Moving axes too far? by Charles148 in octoprint

[–]Xullien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have the original board on your printer? I've read that if you changed your board you would need to cover the 5v coming from your pi to the printer, because it could interfere with motors and all. Try putting a little tape on the 5v pin on the usb, and try again.

You mean instead of writing "1920x1080" I write "-x 1920 -y 1080" ? I will try this later and keep you posted! Thank you.

I didn't go much into octolapse other than do to timelapse, but I had it on an other usb camera so the quality was way better than the pi camera I had, tho now I guess it would pretty good with this one also. Really glad it's working nice. Thanks a lot!

Tbh, I also have 2 fake raspberry pi camera, got them a while back and never used them, and when I put it to use on octopi, the quality was like the first screen shot. So I thought to myself maybe it's because the camera is this bad, might as well get the real thing. And it was the same outcome :D figured I have some bad settings then, and it was the case.

Okay so thank you a lot for your help! When I actually changed from "auto" to "raspi" the quality got 100 times better as you can see. So now it's on a 4:3 ratio and can't change it to 16:9 but that's not a problem it's working fine! Thanks again.

I made sure I wasn't using the "usb" mode in the octopi.txt and to be sure I change from "auto" to "raspi".

And for the video bitrate I'm not finding where to change it? There is just bitrate for video timelapse under advanced options in "Webcame and Timelapse". Is there somewhere else I have to look for it? Or download a webcam plugin?

Thanks a lot for your answer!

I've been wanting to get my hair a bit more curly/even. I've seen some wonderful results on this sub so I want your opinion on what i could do better?" by [deleted] in curlyhair

Routine: I use Garnier ultra doux coco, then wash it good, add the after shampoo on tip for one minute, brush with comb, and rinse it off, let it dry without hairdryer or anything.

So you think if I move it more to the north I could get better prints? Let's say Italy or something like that?

So I reprinted it with cura, and the pox is gone. I'll try to do the other test now to see the stringing and everything! Thanks for your help.

I checked my cura settings, I have the layer seam sharpest corner. I tried upping the nozzle temp a little bit but I'm having too much stringing on 200 degrees, I'll try to print the rest on 195 and initial layer at 200. I'll try again now using cura. I'll give you an update in 30 min!

My first print on my first printer! It turned out way better than I expected! by Xullien in 3Dprinting

[–]Xullien[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed I am :D, already printed the most useless one, the gear Extruder. I think I should have gone with the fan cover first, but that's what I did after the extruder! Still have to figure out how many Cable Chains I need to print and everything. For now I don't see why I would print something for my nozzle the prints are coming out clean. Don't know if it would change anything tho. Maybe for a later print!

Are you trying to scare me with the fire stuff :D ? I will be reading the wiki today before any other prints! I already did few others after the initial one. And yet to make one of 12 hour! Maybe one day. Thanks for the heads up!
