Best camera to use with MG M3 ID
Posted: Sat Nov 18, 2017 5:54 pm
Hi.
I just got the MG M3 ID and was wondering if anyone can recommend a good webcam to use with the printer. I found a link containing webcams that have been known to work with OctoPrint: https://github.com/foosel/OctoPrint/wik ... wn-to-work.
I am putting my printer in my garage and want to be able to monitor prints from my office using my Windows 10 laptop, iPad or iPhone. I'm hoping to find a camera that can be self-standing (next to the printer) or mounted and good in low light.
Also, since the camera will be in a completely different room than my laptop, can the webcam be plugged directly into the USB port on the printer instead of needing a separate connection to the network via wireless or cable?
Thanks in advance!
Andy
