If that fails, please reach out in Discord
How do I turn on my camera?
- Fluiddpi ships with mjpgstreamer built in. Plug in your camera, navigate to the UI settings page, and enable the webcam.
My camera is delayed, or slow
- Here’s a couple of suggestions;
-
Some users have reported that their webcams were problematic when connected to the Pi4’s USB2.0 ports. Try plugging your webcam into the USB3.0 port.
-
Because mjpg streams static images, this can saturate your wifi. Try reducing the fps and resolution of your images. See the
/boot/fluiddpi.txt
folder on your Pi for more information on how to do this. You can also try connecting to wired ethernet.
-
Klipper updated and now my printer has an error
- Klipper likely has configuration changes. Please see here for a list of recent changes.
The host reboot / shutdown commands don’t work
-
Try jumping into
ssh
and running the following;./moonraker/scripts/sudo-fix.sh
My WiFi keeps dropping, is there anything I can do?
-
Depending on your network configuration, sometimes the low power mode of the Pi’s network adapter can cause issues. You can try fixing this by editing the
/etc/rc.local
file and adding the following to the bottom;iwconfig wlan0 power off
Then rebooting.
Why can’t I see a total layer count in Fluidd?
