It stands on the PCB of the cam

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 12:39 PM

#

echo marsh But how to turn on crown set

systemctl start crowsnest

echo marsh

With the v1.3 this is the expected output of libcamera ig.

#

Also you should run systemctl enable crowsnest that it starts automatically at boot

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:16 PM

#

copper holly Also you should run `systemctl enable crowsnest` that it starts automatically at...

Oke

#

So if i do that cmd and restart it should work

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 1:17 PM

#

Maybe

#

There could be other errors too

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:18 PM

#

Oke another question my printer first heats the bed and then the hot end why not at the same time and im useing cura

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 1:19 PM

#

Then maybe your start gcode is bad. Normally they should heat at the same time

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:20 PM

#

Oke i will look in the cura settings

#

Another question i have a bltoch but it doesent bed level in the beginning

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

You have to put it into your start macro ofc

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:34 PM

#

Where

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 1:35 PM

#

Inside cura or inside whatever start macro you are using

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:36 PM

#

Oke im goning to look

#

what are macros

#

Please just google for such simple questions

#

Is your original problem solved?

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 1:41 PM

#

sorry just new to all this

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 1:44 PM

#

echo marsh sorry just new to all this

Yeah I understand that but there is so much online to read about the things and not that hard to find. Also I don't get paid for this support, so don't expect to get answers for everything you ask. Just read through the klipper and mainsail documentation a bit there are a lot of things explained

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 2:00 PM

#

copper holly `systemctl start crowsnest`

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 2:08 PM

#

Please send your crowsnest.log

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 2:20 PM

#

📎 crowsnest.log

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 2:37 PM

#

Please set delete_log: true inside your crowsnest.conf

#

Can you send the url you have set in Mainsail?

#

If I remember correctly the dev of crowsnest said that v1 cams aren't working properly in bullseye. So best would be to use a buster image if you want to use the v1.

echo marsh

And how did you generate like 400 000 lines of log in just 2 months? Did you copy the log over from an old installation? There are a few lines from a few days ago with a raspi zero v1, was the other raspi zero rebooting every few seconds?

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 3:05 PM

#

yeah i changed the board

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:40 PM

#

i know i did someting with ffp orr some thing named like that

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:41 PM

#

ffmpeg?

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:42 PM

#

yeah that was it called

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:42 PM

#

Then I can't help you with that sry

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:43 PM

#

someone of you helpers said i needed to disabel it

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:44 PM

#

Ah yeah, that was me. You were using it on a pi zero v1. If I remember correctly. But I still wouldn't suggest to use ffmpeg on a pi zero v2

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:45 PM

#

copper holly Ah yeah, that was me. You were using it on a pi zero v1. If I remember correctly...

oke so i can't hook up a cam

#

or what is ffmpeg

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:45 PM

#

Crowsnest should be able to use it with buster ig.

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:45 PM

#

echo marsh or what is ffmpeg

Something that can convert videostreams into different formats and it's performance isn't the best in case of grabbing raspi cam streams

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:46 PM

#

straings because when i had it installed on the pi zero 1 it worked

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:47 PM

#

But then your mainsail wasn't working iirc

#

ffmpeg uses a lot of your cpu and could overload your pi ending in shutting down your printer during a print

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:48 PM

#

yeah that was the problem

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:48 PM

#

It would work but that doesn't mean that it will work without problems

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:48 PM

#

then i disabled it and it still worked

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:48 PM

#

Where you on a buster image or bullseye?

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:49 PM

#

idk rlly i never heard of thoese names

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:50 PM

#

I can't find anything inside your logs that say that your cam was working before

#

I guess it was working on an older version

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:50 PM

#

wierd because i got output

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:50 PM

#

On a MainsailOS v0.9 verison

#

Wait found something

#

But I can't see amything special there

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:52 PM

#

i updated it and the output was gone

#

i remeber now

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:52 PM

#

What did you update?

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:53 PM

#

uhhhhh good qustion just in the machine tab and there where 4 updates so i just clicked update all

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:53 PM

#

So it could be anything. Hard to say what broke it then

#

I will ping someone for you that got more experience and might give you some recommendations on how to get it running

echo marsh Apr 23, 2023, 8:54 PM

#

oke, thanks

copper holly Apr 23, 2023, 8:54 PM

#

@crude mesa you said that raspi v1 cams aren't working properly on bullseye. Would it be possible to install buster to use the cam on a pi zero 2 or what would be your recommendation?

crude mesa Apr 24, 2023, 4:03 AM

In combination with ustreamer and the patch to use as v4l device(legacy cam stack) with camera streamer they work OOB.

#

Camera-streamer is developed to run on a rpi zero2w

#

So you might try dev branch then. Hopefully I get it done this week.

copper holly Apr 24, 2023, 11:48 AM

#

@echo marsh so to be clear about the dev branch and how to do it. First uninstall crowsnest then run cd ~/crowsnest && git switch develop after that you can install crowsnest again.

#

In the crowsnest.conf you have to cahnge the mode to camera-streamer and maybe edit your device according to what you can find inside the logs

echo marsh Apr 24, 2023, 12:00 PM

oke thx for the info

copper holly Apr 24, 2023, 12:02 PM

#

Ofc after you installed the develop branch, just to be sure that you didn't misundertood me^^

echo marsh Apr 24, 2023, 12:02 PM

#

oke last question how do i uninstall it and install it ?
