Difficulties Connecting Pi Camera to Pi Zero W
So I have the Prusa version of OctoPrint all up and running fine. Then i decided to add a Raspberry pi camera so I can monitor my prints. I plugged everything in but nothing is showing up in OctoPrint. I am concerned I might have a cable flipped. Could someone clarify are the contacts supposed to go up or down for the camera, extender and Pi Zero?
I feel it is something stupid but I am just lost right now. 😥

So I think i got the cables straightened out but now under the control panel it say just says "Webcam Stream Loading..." and if i use Telegram it freezes when I ask /status.
I am thinking about scrapping the whole thing and going back to a normal raspberry pi.

I solved my problem by going to a PI 3.
