Good news, at least Gina (the OctoPrint developer) is aware of this issue. I hope she will tackle it soon.

Nicolinux, I'll try to put that yaml file in place tonight. In the meantime, do the settings within octoprint do the same thing as the yaml file? I tried those settings last night and it gave me a broken link icon where I was expecting to see the webcam feed appear.
As far as I know, they do. So you should be able to configure the webcam output via the OctoPrint interface. Check that you can access the webcam url directly - so that you see the stream. If this is working, then OctoPrint should pick it up too. Also check that OctoPrint has permission to write to the config file.
Thanks, Nicolinux! I have the webcam image showing in octoprint now.
Does timelapse work when starting a print from the Ultimaker 2?
Hi,
i installed octopi for my UM2 and everything runs fine except printing. I changed gcode falvor to reprap (Marlin/Sprinter).
When the print starts, it starts printing the object immediately. There is no startup procedure like when using ultigcode flavor and starting the print form sd card. So there is no material extruded at all when it starts printing.
This is the start code which is added when changing the flavor to reprap (I am using Cura 14.07):
;Sliced at: {day} {date} {time}
;Basic settings: Layer height: {layer_height} Walls: {wall_thickness} Fill: {fill_density}
;Print time: {print_time}
;Filament used: {filament_amount}m {filament_weight}g
;Filament cost: {filament_cost}
;M190 S{print_bed_temperature} ;Uncomment to add your own bed temperature line
;M109 S{print_temperature} ;Uncomment to add your own temperature line
G21 ;metric values
G90 ;absolute positioning
M82 ;set extruder to absolute mode
M107 ;start with the fan off
G28 X0 Y0 ;move X/Y to min endstops
G28 Z0 ;move Z to min endstops
G1 Z15.0 F{travel_speed} ;move the platform down 15mm
G92 E0 ;zero the extruded length
G1 F200 E3 ;extrude 3mm of feed stock
G92 E0 ;zero the extruded length again
G1 F{travel_speed}
;Put printing message on LCD screen
M117 Printing...
Is this code correct?
I'm having a similar problem with the gcode..
Is there a solution?
Thanks
Found in a different topic :
Most likely the printer is not heating up then. You can try adding a:
M109 S220
To the start of the code.
... hope can help.

Thanks
but the nozzle heats up.. there is no initial extrution
I'm not an expert in gcode but maybe you have to increase the amount of extracted filament during priming?
G1 F200 E3
to
G1 F200 E9
for example? or maybe more i think that now the filament is retracted 20mm at the end of a print...
@ PhilUM2:
If you mean the few cm extruted on the front left corner before printing ... is, If I have understood correctly, the UM2 firmware that do that when recognizes the ultigcode.
What probably you can do is what Didier suggest :
I'm not an expert in gcode but maybe you have to increase the amount of extracted filament during priming?
so ... try to increase the E value to ... 30mm (or more)
G1 F200 E30 ;extrude 30mm of feed stock

Hey guys,
A while back I asked the same question and Daid replied. Maybe it helps.
Hello,
A few weeks ago J3D asked:
"Does timelapse work when starting a print from the Ultimaker 2?"
I have the same problem ... is there a solution or a work around?
Best regards!

Hi,
I've managed to get onto the desktop of the RPi. Only, there's only a waste basket, and no configs whatoever!
I've put the img 0.12.0 onto th micro SD card for my RPi 2B.
What can I do to get more than just a clean desktop?
Thanks in advance!
Leo.
Good morning everybody,
Thank you for this tutorial. I recently installed octopi to control my UM2+ and it looks fantastic. A lot of things are working well, but I ve got a VERY BAD quality on printing.
If I print a gcode file using the SD card it is fantastic finish, whereas if I transfer the same file by octopi, the result seems to have too much material.. (layerrs are too large).
Do you have an idea of why ?
I noticed an interesting point in this tutorial "You can then upload your gcode directly to octoprint and watch all the magic in your web browser.
You'll need to set the gcode flavour to reprap in Cura for this to work (File -> Machine Settings)."
In Cura 2.1.2, where is this setting ? How shoud I set it ?
Thank you for your help )
There's a plugin for Cura 2.3 or newer to print directly to OctoPrint. The plugin is not compatible with Cura 2.1.2. You need Cura 2.3 or newer.
For the UM2+, make sure you read the readme of the plugin!
https://github.com/fieldOfView/OctoPrintPlugin/blob/2.3/README.md
Edited by GuestThe problem is that the prolog and epilog commands are generated in the LCD code rather than the lower level M-code handlers. I've started moving them over, see my fork of Ultimaker2Marlin, branches M720 (like M20, but show long filenames), and M723 (print a file the same as the LCD menu does).
Both should be considered (pre-)^5Alpha
Thank you ! It is now working as perfectly as it can )
Did everything like described before. Everything works out but if i press the print button, says thank you and nothing happens at the octoprint server.. any ideas?
Probably a long shot, but do you guys use Tinkergnome's firmware with Octoprint ?
Can't make Octoprint work :(

Interesting. Wonder if it would work on pc or mac.
