Filament sensor

So, I just found out the filament sensor does not natively work on the octoprint. Any suggestions on plugins (settings for the plugin) to get that to work?

To work in octopi the filament sensors would have to be plugged in directly to the main board and then activated in the marlin firmware. Have a look through the configuration.h file to see if you're able to set it up yourself. We'll do our best to get the modification added to the instructions asap.

    How do I upload changes in Marlin while the Raspberry in mounted?

    Discussion 
    I installed the Raspberry and the camera yesterday and I am wondering now how I upload changes in the Marlin Firmware (the probe settings for example) without disassembling the blue USB Cable from the Raspberry Pi.

    Raspberry camera is shaking

    Discussion 
    Hi! Has anyone created a successful timelapse?! Every video I recorded is an absolute mess with blurred video frames due to the fact that the printer/camera is shaking a lot. I even stabilized the camera with another 2020 extrusion on the endstop side of the X axis that enables me to mount the camera directly in the center of the build platform. I thought of creating a kind of gimbal/mechanical stabalizer to mount the camera on but there must be a better solution...? 😉 Thanks!

    SD Card Support

    Discussion 
    I have found that the SD card is not naitively supported on octoprint with the current configuration of marlin. Before i enable SD Card Support on marlin is there any reason this was left disabled? If i enable it is there any recommendations for setting the SPI speed?
