Remote control and camera

Anyone knows what's been said about the remote control software? I currently run octoprint with a camera on my MK3S, how does the new software work? Is there a known API? Can I add a camera to it or will I still use octoprint?

You mean PrusaConnect? Yeah you can hook up an ethernet cable to your printer and open up Lan settings and put in the first ip address into your browser to monitor your prints. 
I have used it before but it’s nowhere near as powerful as octoprint.

 

Happy printing!

That means I'll probably want to hook up Octoprint to the XL too? Hmm

Yeah, for now. Again, Octoprint is waaay more powerful than Prusa Connect in the current state.

I hope it will play well with octoprint somehow then. G-codes over TCP/IP?
