Upgrading PrusaSlicer
I have a MK3s and running the 3.8 firmware. I have a raspberry Pi running and Octoprint. I recently upgraded the slicer software to the 2.2 version.
Now when I go to print and load the gcode file into Octopi, my camera no longer works. I have Octolapse plugin, and it was working with that, or just the regular viewing with camera. Now with Octolapse enabled, I get an error, and can't print until I disable Octolapse in Octorpint.
Camera worked fine, until I upgraded to the new PrusaSlicer. This is why I do not want to upgrade my printer firmware, even thought the printer keeps beeping to upgrade to new version.
RE: Upgrading PrusaSlicer
You can disable the firmware version beeps in the printer menu. Be aware that 3.8 has a bug that can cause layer shifts with the filament sensor enabled.
Does your camera stream using Octoprint when not printing?

yes it does work when printer is not printing. I would like to upgrade firmware also, but alot of people say they've had problems after upgrading, and if it works fine , leave it alone. I do not want to have to recalibrate everything , reset this and reset that. Other thing is , is it better to wait maybe 6 months or so till all problems are totally worked out with new version. Also not sure there is anything new that is earth shaking that I need, or would make things easier.

Perhaps the Octoprint Forum can help you better in this matter. It may be due to Octolapse or your current Octoprint version. I don't think the problems are caused by the printer firmware or PS.

I hope you find something suitable to solve your problem 👍
