IR sensor not detecting Ninjaflex

I have found it impossible to make the IR sensor detect Ninjaflex, I guess it's because the filament is too soft to push out the idler and create a detection?

I have tried adjusting the IR base position, but if I adjust it to be set to 1 with ninjaflex, it continues to be set to 1 after pulling out the filament.

In practice this means that the filament loading fails and I can't disable the IR probe, even if it's set to off in the menu.

Has anyone else had success printing with Ninjaflex and the MMU2S?

RE: IR sensor not detecting Ninjaflex

some people reported that it works if you loosen the spring screw in the idler door slightly but you need to find the sweet spot where it detects ninjaflex right but still grips strong enough to pull PLA/PETG in.
