RPI Zero 2W & RPI Cam V2 - Can't see camera.

Hi, I've got both Prusa Link and Connect talking to my Printer but can't seem to find my camera.

I followed this guide - https://help.prusa3d.com/guide/prusalink-prusa-connect-with-rpi-3-4-usb-mk2-5-s-mk3-s-_469341

But when I get to the add camera screen in Prusa Connect it differs from your instructions (Only one add camera option). I have two options - "Add new Web Cam" and "Add new Camera other". I assume the second is correct, but how? What does - Connect your camera using our API or with Third Party firmware. mean?

Can someone please help. I'm definitely out of my depth at this point. Should I have bought a USB camera instead?

Hi, on MK3 PrusaLink, go into the local web interface and you should see a camera tab with your rpi camera in there. Switch the little toggle in the left top corner to on. You should see your camera in connect. Additionaly, you can tweak some of the camera settings in the local web interface too. You'll probably want to select the 10s snapshot frequency. Hope thos helps

Hi, sorry, that is not possible in PrusaLink, altho you certainly could make a script that sends snapshots from it to connect. Not sure if anyone on the forum already has a script for that, but they might
