On a printer with an external camera, watching the live view while a print
ran meant the layer timelapse recorded almost nothing and the finish photo
went out with no image. The reporter measured 0 of 87 layer captures on one
print and 0 of 105 on another, both watched throughout. A USB camera allows
one V4L2 handle, so a capture during a live view fails outright.
The built-in camera has had this rule since #1348 and #1271: reuse the
viewer's buffered frame rather than opening a second connection. It was
never extended to the external paths, and it could not have been -- the
buffer it depends on was only ever populated by the built-in paths.
generate_mjpeg_stream yields multipart-wrapped chunks, so the route layer
could not recover the JPEG, and a guarded caller would have found an empty
buffer and skipped every time.
So the stream now publishes each raw frame through a new on_frame callback
(parallel to on_process from #2675), and the six one-shot consumers reuse
it: layer timelapse, the finish-photo moment and its background fallback,
the notification snapshot, Obico polling, and the plate check. A viewer
attached with nothing buffered yet skips that one attempt rather than
competing -- kicking the viewer off is worse than missing a frame.
on_frame exceptions are logged and swallowed, like iter_subscriber's
on_unsubscribe: buffering is a side effect and must never be able to take
the live stream down with it. The external stream's teardown now releases
the buffered frame too, ownership-checked so a concurrent viewer of the
same printer keeps its own.
Two side effects on paths not touched here, both improvements: the snapshot
endpoint and the finish-photo fallback chain consult get_buffered_frame and
can now serve an external camera's live frame. plate_detection's docstring
already claimed this behaviour while implementing it only for the built-in
fallback; that drift is resolved.
ffmpeg is spawned with stderr=PIPE and it was only read on the error
paths, so for the life of a working stream nobody read that pipe. ffmpeg
writes its banner, the input analysis, then a progress line at a steady
rate; a 64 KiB pipe fills eventually, ffmpeg blocks writing to it, frames
stop, and the stream's own 30s timeout fires -- logged as "RTSP read
timeout" with no hint that we starved it ourselves.
How long that takes is unmeasured and evidently long: one H2D upstream
ran 21m36s without stalling, and an earlier 512 B/s extrapolation of mine
was mostly the one-off startup banner. So this is a bounded resource being
treated as unbounded, not a fault anyone has reported.
_FfmpegStderrTail drains the pipe continuously and keeps a 16 KiB rolling
tail. That tail is what the error paths now report, which is better
material than before: it holds what ffmpeg said as things went wrong,
where the on-demand read returned whatever was printed first -- usually
the banner, which the summariser strips anyway.
Three readers wanted this one pipe, and asyncio rejects concurrent reads
on a StreamReader, so the collector is authoritative: it registers by pid,
_read_ffmpeg_stderr returns its tail when present and otherwise reads the
pipe unchanged, and _terminate_ffmpeg skips its own stderr drain when the
collector owns it (the collector keeps draining through teardown, which is
all wait() needs). The generator starts it after the immediate-failure
check, which reads the pipe directly because the process is already dead,
and releases it after _terminate_ffmpeg.
text() goes through _summarize_ffmpeg_stderr like every other stderr log
here, so the access code ffmpeg echoes in its input URL stays masked.
aclose() awaits the cancelled pump rather than firing and forgetting, so
no pending task survives into loop teardown.
Closing a camera view and reopening it immediately could leave the new
stream unregistered while it was running and delivering frames. The
damage was all indirect: is_stream_active() reported no viewer, so Obico
polling and snapshots opened a second camera connection against the live
view (the thing #1348 and #1271 exist to prevent); the janitor's /proc
scan found an ffmpeg missing from _active_streams and killed the live
stream as an orphan; and /camera/stop reported "Stopped 0" with a stream
running.
The fan-out stream id was f"{printer_id}-fanout" -- constant per printer,
so every successive stream shared one registry key, and the departing
generator's finally popped whatever was under it, including its
successor's entry. The same finally also cleared the per-printer frame
buffer unconditionally, discarding the new stream's frame. It needed the
two streams to overlap, which the 4s teardown made easy.
Each stream now gets its own key via _new_fanout_stream_id(), so a
generator can only clean up after itself -- the external-camera path
already does this (#2675) and this brings the fan-out path in line. The
per-printer dicts are released through _release_printer_frame_state(),
which checks that no other stream for the printer is still running; both
the RTSP and chamber-image cleanups had the same unconditional pop.
Also hoisted time and uuid to module level and dropped four
function-local `import time` statements. A local import shadows the name
for the whole function, so any use on a branch that doesn't reach the
import raises UnboundLocalError -- a real hazard in camera_stream, whose
external-camera branch imported both while the RTSP path needs them too.
A test pins camera_stream as free of function-local imports.
Closing a camera view logged "ffmpeg didn't terminate gracefully,
killing" followed by "ffmpeg did not exit within 2.0s of SIGKILL;
abandoning wait", on every single close. Both waits expired every time,
so teardown took a fixed 4.00s -- and since the firmware allows one
camera connection, that was 4s in which nothing else could use it.
ffmpeg is spawned with stdout and stderr as pipes and the teardown paths
have stopped reading them, so it sits blocked in write() on a full 64 KiB
pipe. SIGTERM cannot be acted on there: the handler only sets a flag that
the main loop polls, and the loop never gets back to the check. SIGKILL
does kill it, but asyncio resolves Process.wait()'s waiter through
_try_finish(), which requires every pipe transport to report
disconnected; paused, unread pipes never reach EOF, so wait() blocks with
returncode already set. A negative-control test shows returncode=-9 at
the instant the abandon fires.
Draining both pipes while stopping the process fixes both halves: 4.00s
becomes ~0.15s. The signal ladder and its bounds stay as backstops, so a
genuinely wedged process still cannot hang a stream, a Stop request or
the janitor.
This corrects _FFMPEG_KILL_TIMEOUT's premise and #2580's conclusion. That
12-hour hang was the unbounded form of this same self-inflicted stall, not
an ffmpeg stuck in uninterruptible I/O -- the process observed doing it
was in state S, which cannot survive a delivered SIGKILL. Bounding the
wait capped the symptom without removing the cause.
Bambu firmware allows exactly one camera connection. The existing guards
(is_stream_active / try_get_active_buffered_frame, #1271 and #1348) only
stop a one-shot capturer from competing with the fan-out broadcaster.
Nothing coordinated the capturers with each other, so with no viewer
attached every consumer correctly concluded it was not competing with a
viewer and then collided with the others. On the reporter's P2S an Obico
poll and a snapshot opened two RTSP sockets 207 ms apart, which knocked
over the fan-out stream feeding the camera wall; it was then reaped for
having received no frames for 58s.
capture_camera_frame_bytes() now coalesces: the first caller opens the
connection, callers arriving while it is in flight await the same result.
Eight paths reach that function independently - Obico polling, the
snapshot route, the finish-photo moment and its disk-writing sibling,
plate detection, the camera test and the diagnose tool - so the
single-flight sits at the bottom of the stack and no call site changes.
Keyed by IP, since that is what the firmware's limit applies to and the
function never sees a printer_id. The key excludes the timeout on
purpose: the call sites disagree about it, from 10s to 30s, so keying on
it would mean the Obico-vs-snapshot pair from the report never coalesced
at all.
It coalesces, it does not cache. A call arriving after the previous
capture finished still captures fresh, because plate detection and the
finish-photo path judge a running print from these frames and a stale one
there is worse than a slow one - #1397 was a finish photo taken seconds
late showing the bed already lowered.
Each caller waits on its own deadline rather than inheriting whichever
one happened to open the connection, and shield() means giving up leaves
the capture running for whoever else is still waiting. A follower whose
leader fails takes a turn of its own instead of inheriting a failure it
never had a chance to avoid; the leader has finished by then, so there is
nothing left to compete with. Bounded at two rounds. That also covers the
follower whose timeout is longer than the leader's, which coalescing
alone cannot. Cancellation is disambiguated via leader.cancelled(), so a
follower's own cancellation propagates while a cancelled leader is
treated as a failed one.
The leader is deliberately not wrapped in a second wait_for: the
implementation already enforces the timeout internally, where it can also
kill the ffmpeg process, and an outer deadline would abandon the
subprocess instead of killing it.
The diagnose tool now marks a stage whose frame came from a capture
already in flight as coalesced_capture. The pass is real evidence the
camera works, but duration_ms is then mostly time spent queueing, and a
diagnostic must not report a connection it never opened - the same reason
that file declares its live_stream_active shortcut instead of quietly
passing. Failures are not annotated, since a follower whose leader fails
goes on to capture on its own.
The Filament Mapping panel reported "(Ready)" with a green tick for a slot
where the slice wanted dark red and the auto-matched tray held dark green.
Manually picking that same tray reported the mismatch correctly, which is
what made it obvious something was inconsistent.
Auto-match ranks candidates by tray_info_idx first, and a uniquely-matching
preset was accepted as definitive on the premise "same preset = same spool =
same colour". The preset names the variant, not the spool: GFA00 is PLA
Basic, GFA01 PLA Matte, GFA17 PLA Translucent, in every colour Bambu sells.
The reporter's own bundle has eight GFA00 trays in eight colours. With one
Matte spool loaded, every Matte requirement idx-matched it and the colour
comparison was never reached - which is why this surfaced on PLA Matte and
not on Basic, where several spools are usually loaded and the match falls
through to the branch that does compare colours.
The verdict now comes from the tray that was selected rather than from which
rule selected it, and both branches share one comparison so they cannot
drift apart again. Selection is unchanged - the right variant still wins per
mismatch and the slot stays selected.
A requirement with no colour at all is treated as satisfied rather than
mismatched; 3MFs that omit it parse to "" and there is nothing to disagree
with. That also affects the manual branch, which used to flag it.
No dispatch change: _get_missing_force_color_slots already required an exact
colour, so force colour match was gated correctly throughout.
Follow-up to #2680: the calendar toggle only put dates on the file pane, so
the folder tree had no way to show the timestamp it was already sorting on.
FolderTreeItem now takes showModified and renders latest_activity_at under
the folder name, threaded through the recursive call so nested folders get it
too. No backend change - the field was already on the wire from the sort fix.
Folders are labelled "last activity", not "last modified", and get their own
i18n key. The value is the newest timestamp among the folder, its files and
everything below it, so a folder can read as newer than its own directory
mtime - calling that "modified" would look like a fresh instance of the
ls -lt mismatch the issue was originally about. Folders with no activity
render nothing rather than an Invalid Date placeholder.
The name span moved into a flex column so the second line does not disturb
the row's link badge, file count or kebab menu. That broke a folder-delete
test that reached the row via parentElement, now fixed to use closest().
Separately, the #996 collapse describe left an implementation on the
module-global localStorage.getItem mock, which silently collapsed the folder
tree for every describe after it. It resets in afterEach now; without that,
any later test asserting on nested folders fails for reasons unrelated to
what it is testing.
mqtt_relay reads state.left_aux_fan_speed, but the SimpleNamespace fixture in
test_plate_clear_mqtt_notification enumerates its fields explicitly, so the two
status-payload tests raised AttributeError. I updated the equivalent fixture in
test_printer_manager_status_broadcast and missed this one — running only the
touched suites is what hid it.
Also addresses the round-2 review notes:
- exhaust_fan_present: documented that the H2 series reports part 3 too, so the
flag is not model-specific despite the name.
- Mask the part id after shifting, matching get_flag_bits(id, 4, 8), for
consistency with the state decode. No behaviour change for any observed id.
- Noted the unmapped H2 id 6 beside the id branches.
- Reject fan=aux2 when the printer reports no left_aux_fan_speed, so a POST
against an A1 no longer sends M106 P10 for absent hardware. The UI already
hid the badge; this closes the same hole on the API.
- Added a test asserting EXHAUST_FAN_LABEL_MODELS and the frontend's
MODELS_WITH_EXHAUST_LABEL cannot drift apart.
The hook is mounted globally in WebSocketProvider, so refetchInterval on its
per-printer status queries added one request per printer every 30s on every
page. The Printers page already runs that fallback on the same query key, and
useWebSocket writes ['printerStatus', id] straight into the cache, so the poll
bought nothing outside the Printers page and cost a request per printer per
tab everywhere else.
Also captures document.title at mount instead of restoring to a hardcoded
'Bambuddy', so the default no longer has to be kept in sync with index.html.
jsdom has no canvas backend, so getContext('2d') logged a "Not implemented"
jsdomError with a full React stack on every run of the hook's tests, and the
favicon branch bailed on the null context and went untested. Stubbing
getContext/toDataURL removes the noise and lets the ring code run, so the
favicon swap and the restore-on-toggle-off path are now asserted.
Telegram groups with Topics enabled always received notifications in the
General topic, since only Bot Token and Chat ID were configurable. Splitting
notifications per printer meant running a separate chat for each one.
The Telegram provider now takes an optional Forum Topic ID - the last number
in a topic's link, t.me/c/1234567890/25 - and routes its messages there. Left
empty, nothing changes.
The value is coerced to an int once in _send_telegram and attached to both the
sendMessage JSON body and the sendPhoto form data. That ordering matters:
Telegram rejects a string message_thread_id in the JSON body while accepting
one in the multipart call, so passing the raw form value through would have
worked for thumbnail notifications and 400'd for plain-text ones. A
non-numeric value is rejected in the form and again server-side before any
request goes out.
No migration - provider config is a JSON blob.
Adds Forum Topic ID plus help text to the Telegram section of the provider
dialog, translated in all 13 locales. Backend tests cover omitted / blank /
int-typed / non-numeric values and both send paths; frontend tests cover the
field being optional, absent for other providers, round-tripping on save, and
blocking save on a bad value.
Optional and off by default, toggled under Settings -> Appearance. When enabled, the browser tab shows the soonest-finishing print's percentage plus a green progress-
ring favicon, updated live over the existing WebSocket. The preference is stored per-browser in localStorage.
Adds the usePrintProgressTitle hook (with tests), a ThemeContext preference, the Settings toggle, i18n strings for all locales, and a README entry.
The uk locale was inserted before ru in i18n/index.ts - in the import block,
the resources map and availableLanguages. Locales are appended to those lists
as they land (tr, then ru on 2026-07-19, then uk on 2026-07-28), and
SettingsPage renders availableLanguages in array order, so the picker showed
Ukrainian above Russian while every other entry followed the order it was
added.
Moves uk to the end of all three lists. SUPPORTED_LNGS is sorted
alphabetically and already had uk in the correct position, so it is unchanged.
Frontend-only, no behaviour change beyond the picker's row order.
Subprocess output and user-supplied URLs are scrubbed of credentials
before they reach the application log. Adds a shared redaction helper in
core/logging_filters and routes the existing support-bundle sanitizer
through the same pattern.
Timelapse was on, the video never reached the archive, and Scan for Timelapse
found nothing afterwards. Across 247 support bundles this was the norm, not an
edge case: 457 automatic scans scheduled, 262 attached.
The scan looked four times over ~65s. The attempt that found the video was #1
272 times, then 17 / 13 / 13 — flat against the cutoff, not decaying, i.e.
files were still arriving when we stopped. What ran afterwards searched for the
print name inside the filename; Bambu only writes "video_<timestamp>", so it
fired 159 times and matched zero.
The manual Scan had no baseline at all and matched on filename timestamp, FTP
mtime, or "there is only one video" — all reading a clock a LAN-only printer
cannot sync. The reporter's P1S was six and a half days out.
- Poll for minutes instead of ~65s; drop the name-match fallback.
- Persist the print-start baseline on the archive, so the diff survives a
restart mid-print and the manual Scan runs the same comparison. With a
baseline present the clock-based strategies are skipped entirely — they can
only turn an honest "pick one" into a confident wrong answer.
- When several files are new (a previous print's video landing late), exclude
the ones already attached to another archive instead of ordering the
candidates. Ordering could only be done on the printer's clock.
- Delete the video from the printer once archived. Keeps /timelapse to
unclaimed files, which is what makes the diff unambiguous, and stops P1S
cards filling with AVIs.
- Gate that delete on a verified transfer: download_file now compares against
the size from the listing. An FTPS connection closing early does not always
raise, so a partial buffer was being attached as a complete video — which
would also have been the one case where deleting the source lost data.
Bounded twice on purpose: wall-clock deadline plus a derived round cap, since
the deadline stops bounding the loop as soon as the sleeps are shortened.
Per-round logging only speaks when the listing changed — 31 rounds of full
listings would bury the interesting line in the support bundle.
Migration adds print_archives.timelapse_baseline as JSON, spelled the same on
both dialects so a migrated database matches a fresh one.
-----------
fix(finish-photo): add the timelapse frame to the archive after the notification (#2704)
When a print records a timelapse, its last frame is the better finish photo:
the firmware stops recording with the toolhead parked and before the end
G-code drops the bed, where a live grab at that moment catches a lowered
plate. Bambuddy waited 60s for the video and then gave up, because the
print-complete notification blocks on that photo and holding a notification
for minutes is worse than sending it with the live grab.
P1-series printers write MJPEG AVI rather than H.264 MP4 and serve it slowly.
Measured over 261 attaches in the support bundles: P1S median 33s, p90 167s,
worst 546s, while every other model finished inside 26s. So the printers that
most needed the better framing were the ones that never got it.
Keep the notification on the same bound, and keep waiting off to the side.
_capture_finish_photo_from_timelapse now reports whether it ran out of time or
concluded — a video that landed and failed extraction is not worth retrying,
one that never arrived is. On the first, schedule a background task that waits
up to 15 minutes and inserts the extracted frame at the front of the archive's
photo list, where the gallery opens.
The live grab stays on disk: the notification already links to that exact
file, so removing it would leave a broken image in Discord or Telegram.
The length check proves we received what the listing said, not that the file
was finished. The first look happens ~5s after the print ends, while the
printer may still be writing, so a growing file can be listed short, served
short, and pass. Re-list after the download and only accept the video once its
size has stopped changing — a failed re-list counts as not settled, since
"could not check" must not mean "safe to delete".
The finish photo needs a "printing done, toolhead parked, filament unload
not started" moment. stg_cur=22 was meant to be it (#1721) and fires on no
model in the field: across 247 support bundles there is not one
FINISH PHOTO MOMENT (stage-22), including the 2026-06-13..07-08 window where
it was the only pre-FINISH trigger in the code — 104 captures on A1, A1 Mini,
H2C, H2D, P1S, P2S, X1C and X2D, all of them the FINISH fallback.
A replacement can't be designed from the bundles we have. Out of that window
Bambuddy parses only stg_cur and mc_print_sub_stage; every other stage/action
field arrives and is dropped unread. The candidates that sound right
(print_real_action, mc_action, mc_stage) are absent from A1/A1 Mini/P1S
payloads, so none of them can be the universal answer alone.
Dump the raw fields for the window between the last object layer and
gcode_state=FINISH at DEBUG. Opens on the first end-of-print signal (last
layer, progress >= 99, or no remaining time) so a dropped layer_num packet
doesn't lose it, logs only what changed frame to frame, closes on the
transition out of RUNNING, and arms once per print.
Instrumentation only: gated on DEBUG being enabled, read-only against printer
state, wrapped so it cannot break ingest, and capped at 400 frames per print.
The probed fields are stage codes, counters and bitfields — nothing
identifying, and no access code.
A printer with a wrong access code gave no explanation anywhere. The connect
callback's failure branch was a bare `state.connected = False`, discarding the
CONNACK reason code the printer had just sent, so the only trace was paho's
follow-up disconnect -- logged every 30 seconds as "rc=Unspecified error",
which is exactly what a powered-off printer produces. In the report behind this
fix one of three printers had been in that loop for the whole capture, and
neither the log nor the support bundle could say why.
Bambu speaks MQTT 3.1.1, whose CONNACK return codes 4 and 5 paho maps onto
reason codes 134 and 135. Both are now logged with the printer's own reason
string and, for those two, the remedy: the access code is regenerated whenever
LAN Only or Developer Mode is toggled, so it has to be re-read from the screen.
The access code itself is never logged -- it would land in every bundle.
The reason is kept on the client as a stable slug and plumbed through
test_connection into the connection diagnostic, which now distinguishes two
cases it previously conflated. "The printer refused our credentials" is
asserted only when the printer said so; when all Bambuddy knows is that there
is no session, the text hedges and names the alternatives (rebooting, or
already at its limit of simultaneous connections). The old wording claimed the
access code was most likely wrong in both cases.
Frontend needed no change -- ConnectionDiagnostic already renders
`<status>_<reason>` variants with fallback to the plain per-status text, so an
unrecognised slug degrades to today's wording rather than a missing key.
On a printer with an external camera, watching the live view while a print
ran meant the layer timelapse recorded almost nothing and the finish photo
went out with no image. The reporter measured 0 of 87 layer captures on one
print and 0 of 105 on another, both watched throughout. A USB camera allows
one V4L2 handle, so a capture during a live view fails outright.
The built-in camera has had this rule since #1348 and #1271: reuse the
viewer's buffered frame rather than opening a second connection. It was
never extended to the external paths, and it could not have been -- the
buffer it depends on was only ever populated by the built-in paths.
generate_mjpeg_stream yields multipart-wrapped chunks, so the route layer
could not recover the JPEG, and a guarded caller would have found an empty
buffer and skipped every time.
So the stream now publishes each raw frame through a new on_frame callback
(parallel to on_process from #2675), and the six one-shot consumers reuse
it: layer timelapse, the finish-photo moment and its background fallback,
the notification snapshot, Obico polling, and the plate check. A viewer
attached with nothing buffered yet skips that one attempt rather than
competing -- kicking the viewer off is worse than missing a frame.
on_frame exceptions are logged and swallowed, like iter_subscriber's
on_unsubscribe: buffering is a side effect and must never be able to take
the live stream down with it. The external stream's teardown now releases
the buffered frame too, ownership-checked so a concurrent viewer of the
same printer keeps its own.
Two side effects on paths not touched here, both improvements: the snapshot
endpoint and the finish-photo fallback chain consult get_buffered_frame and
can now serve an external camera's live frame. plate_detection's docstring
already claimed this behaviour while implementing it only for the built-in

ffmpeg is spawned with stderr=PIPE and it was only read on the error
paths, so for the life of a working stream nobody read that pipe. ffmpeg
writes its banner, the input analysis, then a progress line at a steady
rate; a 64 KiB pipe fills eventually, ffmpeg blocks writing to it, frames
stop, and the stream's own 30s timeout fires -- logged as "RTSP read

How long that takes is unmeasured and evidently long: one H2D upstream
ran 21m36s without stalling, and an earlier 512 B/s extrapolation of mine
was mostly the one-off startup banner. So this is a bounded resource being
treated as unbounded, not a fault anyone has reported.

Eight paths reach that function independently - Obico polling, the

plate detection, the camera test and the diagnose tool - so the
single-flight sits at the bottom of the stack and no call site changes.
Keyed by IP, since that is what the firmware's limit applies to and the
function never sees a printer_id. The key excludes the timeout on
purpose: the call sites disagree about it, from 10s to 30s, so keying on
it would mean the Obico-vs-snapshot pair from the report never coalesced
at all.
It coalesces, it does not cache. A call arriving after the previous
capture finished still captures fresh, because plate detection and the
finish-photo path judge a running print from these frames and a stale one
there is worse than a slow one - #1397 was a finish photo taken seconds
late showing the bed already lowered.
Each caller waits on its own deadline rather than inheriting whichever
one happened to open the connection, and shield() means giving up leaves
the capture running for whoever else is still waiting. A follower whose
leader fails takes a turn of its own instead of inheriting a failure it
never had a chance to avoid; the leader has finished by then, so there is
nothing left to compete with. Bounded at two rounds. That also covers the
follower whose timeout is longer than the leader's, which coalescing
alone cannot. Cancellation is disambiguated via leader.cancelled(), so a
follower's own cancellation propagates while a cancelled leader is
treated as a failed one.
The leader is deliberately not wrapped in a second wait_for: the
implementation already enforces the timeout internally, where it can also
kill the ffmpeg process, and an outer deadline would abandon the
subprocess instead of killing it.
The diagnose tool now marks a stage whose frame came from a capture
already in flight as coalesced_capture. The pass is real evidence the
camera works, but duration_ms is then mostly time spent queueing, and a
diagnostic must not report a connection it never opened - the same reason
that file declares its live_stream_active shortcut instead of quietly
passing. Failures are not annotated, since a follower whose leader fails
goes on to capture on its own.
The Filament Mapping panel reported "(Ready)" with a green tick for a slot
where the slice wanted dark red and the auto-matched tray held dark green.
Manually picking that same tray reported the mismatch correctly, which is
what made it obvious something was inconsistent.
Auto-match ranks candidates by tray_info_idx first, and a uniquely-matching
preset was accepted as definitive on the premise "same preset = same spool =
same colour". The preset names the variant, not the spool: GFA00 is PLA
Basic, GFA01 PLA Matte, GFA17 PLA Translucent, in every colour Bambu sells.
The reporter's own bundle has eight GFA00 trays in eight colours. With one
Matte spool loaded, every Matte requirement idx-matched it and the colour
comparison was never reached - which is why this surfaced on PLA Matte and
not on Basic, where several spools are usually loaded and the match falls
through to the branch that does compare colours.
The verdict now comes from the tray that was selected rather than from which
rule selected it, and both branches share one comparison so they cannot
drift apart again. Selection is unchanged - the right variant still wins per
mismatch and the slot stays selected.
A requirement with no colour at all is treated as satisfied rather than
mismatched; 3MFs that omit it parse to "" and there is nothing to disagree
with. That also affects the manual branch, which used to flag it.
No dispatch change: _get_missing_force_color_slots already required an exact
colour, so force colour match was gated correctly throughout.
Follow-up to #2680: the calendar toggle only put dates on the file pane, so
the folder tree had no way to show the timestamp it was already sorting on.
FolderTreeItem now takes showModified and renders latest_activity_at under
the folder name, threaded through the recursive call so nested folders get it
too. No backend change - the field was already on the wire from the sort fix.
Folders are labelled "last activity", not "last modified", and get their own
i18n key. The value is the newest timestamp among the folder, its files and
everything below it, so a folder can read as newer than its own directory
mtime - calling that "modified" would look like a fresh instance of the
ls -lt mismatch the issue was originally about. Folders with no activity
render nothing rather than an Invalid Date placeholder.
The name span moved into a flex column so the second line does not disturb
the row's link badge, file count or kebab menu. That broke a folder-delete
test that reached the row via parentElement, now fixed to use closest().
Separately, the #996 collapse describe left an implementation on the
module-global localStorage.getItem mock, which silently collapsed the folder
tree for every describe after it. It resets in afterEach now; without that,
any later test asserting on nested folders fails for reasons unrelated to
what it is testing.
mqtt_relay reads state.left_aux_fan_speed, but the SimpleNamespace fixture in
test_plate_clear_mqtt_notification enumerates its fields explicitly, so the two
status-payload tests raised AttributeError. I updated the equivalent fixture in
test_printer_manager_status_broadcast and missed this one — running only the
touched suites is what hid it.
Also addresses the round-2 review notes:
- exhaust_fan_present: documented that the H2 series reports part 3 too, so the
flag is not model-specific despite the name.
- Mask the part id after shifting, matching get_flag_bits(id, 4, 8), for
consistency with the state decode. No behaviour change for any observed id.
- Noted the unmapped H2 id 6 beside the id branches.
- Reject fan=aux2 when the printer reports no left_aux_fan_speed, so a POST
against an A1 no longer sends M106 P10 for absent hardware. The UI already
hid the badge; this closes the same hole on the API.
- Added a test asserting EXHAUST_FAN_LABEL_MODELS and the frontend's
MODELS_WITH_EXHAUST_LABEL cannot drift apart.
The hook is mounted globally in WebSocketProvider, so refetchInterval on its
per-printer status queries added one request per printer every 30s on every
page. The Printers page already runs that fallback on the same query key, and
useWebSocket writes ['printerStatus', id] straight into the cache, so the poll
bought nothing outside the Printers page and cost a request per printer per
tab everywhere else.
Also captures document.title at mount instead of restoring to a hardcoded
'Bambuddy', so the default no longer has to be kept in sync with index.html.
jsdom has no canvas backend, so getContext('2d') logged a "Not implemented"
jsdomError with a full React stack on every run of the hook's tests, and the
favicon branch bailed on the null context and went untested. Stubbing
getContext/toDataURL removes the noise and lets the ring code run, so the
favicon swap and the restore-on-toggle-off path are now asserted.
Telegram groups with Topics enabled always received notifications in the
General topic, since only Bot Token and Chat ID were configurable. Splitting
notifications per printer meant running a separate chat for each one.
The Telegram provider now takes an optional Forum Topic ID - the last number
in a topic's link, t.me/c/1234567890/25 - and routes its messages there. Left
empty, nothing changes.
The value is coerced to an int once in _send_telegram and attached to both the
sendMessage JSON body and the sendPhoto form data. That ordering matters:
Telegram rejects a string message_thread_id in the JSON body while accepting
one in the multipart call, so passing the raw form value through would have
worked for thumbnail notifications and 400'd for plain-text ones. A
non-numeric value is rejected in the form and again server-side before any
request goes out.
No migration - provider config is a JSON blob.
Adds Forum Topic ID plus help text to the Telegram section of the provider
dialog, translated in all 13 locales. Backend tests cover omitted / blank /
int-typed / non-numeric values and both send paths; frontend tests cover the
field being optional, absent for other providers, round-tripping on save, and
blocking save on a bad value.
Optional and off by default, toggled under Settings -> Appearance. When enabled, the browser tab shows the soonest-finishing print's percentage plus a green progress-ring favicon, updated live over the existing WebSocket. The preference is stored per-browser in localStorage.
Adds the usePrintProgressTitle hook (with tests), a ThemeContext preference, the Settings toggle, i18n strings for all locales, and a README entry.
The uk locale was inserted before ru in i18n/index.ts - in the import block,
the resources map and availableLanguages. Locales are appended to those lists
as they land (tr, then ru on 2026-07-19, then uk on 2026-07-28), and
SettingsPage renders availableLanguages in array order, so the picker showed
Ukrainian above Russian while every other entry followed the order it was
added.
Moves uk to the end of all three lists. SUPPORTED_LNGS is sorted
alphabetically and already had uk in the correct position, so it is unchanged.
Frontend-only, no behaviour change beyond the picker's row order.
Subprocess output and user-supplied URLs are scrubbed of credentials
before they reach the application log. Adds a shared redaction helper in
core/logging_filters and routes the existing support-bundle sanitizer
through the same pattern.
Timelapse was on, the video never reached the archive, and Scan for Timelapse
found nothing afterwards. Across 247 support bundles this was the norm, not an
edge case: 457 automatic scans scheduled, 262 attached.
The scan looked four times over ~65s. The attempt that found the video was #1
272 times, then 17 / 13 / 13 — flat against the cutoff, not decaying, i.e.
files were still arriving when we stopped. What ran afterwards searched for the
print name inside the filename; Bambu only writes "video_<timestamp>", so it
fired 159 times and matched zero.
The manual Scan had no baseline at all and matched on filename timestamp, FTP
mtime, or "there is only one video" — all reading a clock a LAN-only printer
cannot sync. The reporter's P1S was six and a half days out.
- Poll for minutes instead of ~65s; drop the name-match fallback.
- Persist the print-start baseline on the archive, so the diff survives a
restart mid-print and the manual Scan runs the same comparison. With a
baseline present the clock-based strategies are skipped entirely — they can
only turn an honest "pick one" into a confident wrong answer.
- When several files are new (a previous print's video landing late), exclude
the ones already attached to another archive instead of ordering the
candidates. Ordering could only be done on the printer's clock.
- Delete the video from the printer once archived. Keeps /timelapse to
unclaimed files, which is what makes the diff unambiguous, and stops P1S
cards filling with AVIs.
- Gate that delete on a verified transfer: download_file now compares against
the size from the listing. An FTPS connection closing early does not always
raise, so a partial buffer was being attached as a complete video — which
would also have been the one case where deleting the source lost data.
Bounded twice on purpose: wall-clock deadline plus a derived round cap, since
the deadline stops bounding the loop as soon as the sleeps are shortened.
Per-round logging only speaks when the listing changed — 31 rounds of full
listings would bury the interesting line in the support bundle.
Migration adds print_archives.timelapse_baseline as JSON, spelled the same on
both dialects so a migrated database matches a fresh one.
-----------
fix(finish-photo): add the timelapse frame to the archive after the notification (#2704)
When a print records a timelapse, its last frame is the better finish photo:
the firmware stops recording with the toolhead parked and before the end
G-code drops the bed, where a live grab at that moment catches a lowered
plate. Bambuddy waited 60s for the video and then gave up, because the
print-complete notification blocks on that photo and holding a notification
for minutes is worse than sending it with the live grab.
P1-series printers write MJPEG AVI rather than H.264 MP4 and serve it slowly.
Measured over 261 attaches in the support bundles: P1S median 33s, p90 167s,
worst 546s, while every other model finished inside 26s. So the printers that
most needed the better framing were the ones that never got it.
Keep the notification on the same bound, and keep waiting off to the side.
_capture_finish_photo_from_timelapse now reports whether it ran out of time or
concluded — a video that landed and failed extraction is not worth retrying,
one that never arrived is. On the first, schedule a background task that waits
up to 15 minutes and inserts the extracted frame at the front of the archive's
photo list, where the gallery opens.
The live grab stays on disk: the notification already links to that exact
file, so removing it would leave a broken image in Discord or Telegram.
The length check proves we received what the listing said, not that the file
was finished. The first look happens ~5s after the print ends, while the
printer may still be writing, so a growing file can be listed short, served
short, and pass. Re-list after the download and only accept the video once its
size has stopped changing — a failed re-list counts as not settled, since
"could not check" must not mean "safe to delete".
The finish photo needs a "printing done, toolhead parked, filament unload
not started" moment. stg_cur=22 was meant to be it (#1721) and fires on no
model in the field: across 247 support bundles there is not one
FINISH PHOTO MOMENT (stage-22), including the 2026-06-13..07-08 window where
it was the only pre-FINISH trigger in the code — 104 captures on A1, A1 Mini,
H2C, H2D, P1S, P2S, X1C and X2D, all of them the FINISH fallback.
A replacement can't be designed from the bundles we have. Out of that window
Bambuddy parses only stg_cur and mc_print_sub_stage; every other stage/action
field arrives and is dropped unread. The candidates that sound right
(print_real_action, mc_action, mc_stage) are absent from A1/A1 Mini/P1S
payloads, so none of them can be the universal answer alone.
Dump the raw fields for the window between the last object layer and
gcode_state=FINISH at DEBUG. Opens on the first end-of-print signal (last
layer, progress >= 99, or no remaining time) so a dropped layer_num packet
doesn't lose it, logs only what changed frame to frame, closes on the
transition out of RUNNING, and arms once per print.
Instrumentation only: gated on DEBUG being enabled, read-only against printer
state, wrapped so it cannot break ingest, and capped at 400 frames per print.
The probed fields are stage codes, counters and bitfields — nothing
identifying, and no access code.
A printer with a wrong access code gave no explanation anywhere. The connect
callback's failure branch was a bare `state.connected = False`, discarding the
CONNACK reason code the printer had just sent, so the only trace was paho's
follow-up disconnect -- logged every 30 seconds as "rc=Unspecified error",
which is exactly what a powered-off printer produces. In the report behind this
fix one of three printers had been in that loop for the whole capture, and
neither the log nor the support bundle could say why.
Bambu speaks MQTT 3.1.1, whose CONNACK return codes 4 and 5 paho maps onto
reason codes 134 and 135. Both are now logged with the printer's own reason
string and, for those two, the remedy: the access code is regenerated whenever
LAN Only or Developer Mode is toggled, so it has to be re-read from the screen.
The access code itself is never logged -- it would land in every bundle.
The reason is kept on the client as a stable slug and plumbed through
test_connection into the connection diagnostic, which now distinguishes two
cases it previously conflated. "The printer refused our credentials" is
asserted only when the printer said so; when all Bambuddy knows is that there
is no session, the text hedges and names the alternatives (rebooting, or
already at its limit of simultaneous connections). The old wording claimed the
access code was most likely wrong in both cases.
Frontend needed no change -- ConnectionDiagnostic already renders
`<status>_<reason>` variants with fallback to the plain per-status text, so an
unrecognised slug degrades to today's wording rather than a missing key.
Every slot of the A2L's AMS Lite rendered as "?" in Bambu Studio through the
Virtual Printer while Bambuddy's own AMS card was correct, and a filament set
by hand in Studio reverted about a second later.
The A2L reports its AMS Lite as physical unit id 16 but packs the slot presence
bits at base 24, so bambu_mqtt normalises the id to 6 at the ingest boundary and
every internal reader gets the right bits. The VP bridge is not downstream of
that: BambuMQTTClient._on_message fans raw payload bytes out to raw-message
handlers before parsing, so mqtt_bridge._on_printer_raw does its own json.loads
and still holds id 16. It then called the shared apply_tray_exist_bits, which
computed 16*4 = bits 64-67 -- never set -- concluded all four slots were empty,
and wiped tray_type / tray_color / tray_info_idx / tag_uid / tray_uuid / remain
from the copy sent to the slicer. That runs on every push, which is why a manual
pick could not survive the next 1 Hz cached-as-base report.
apply_tray_exist_bits now folds the unit id through normalize_am_unit_id, so 16
and 6 land on the same bit base whichever id the caller holds. The bridge's
cached ids stay physical on purpose -- Studio addresses the Lite as 16, sending
ams_get_rfid {ams_id: 16} through the VP -- so normalising the cache instead
would have broken the slicer's own command path.
Confirmed from the reporter's debug log, which shows the cleanup clearing slots
at bits 64-67 under the VP's log label. Before #2670 added the
0 <= ams_id <= 15 range guard this wiped the slots; after it, unit 16 fell out
of the guard and the A2L got no empty-slot cleanup at all -- two different wrong
answers, both fixed here.

Review feedback on #2691: `state` is bit-packed like its sibling `range`
(end << 16 | start), and Bambu Studio decodes it with
get_flag_bits(state, 0, 8). Masking with & 0xFF before clamping means a
packed value decodes to the real percentage instead of clamping to 100.
Also moves the uses_exhaust_fan_label import to the top of printers.py with
the other imports.
Tests: packed value (60 << 16 | 45) decodes to 45, and plain 0-100 values
round-trip unchanged.
