Buddy Cam In Color?
during a color change the buddy cam suddenly is on color now. Can we make this a permanent change?
RE: Buddy Cam In Color?
This is due to the larger bright area on the print bed. You can achieve a similar effect by holding a white sheet of paper in front of the camera / in the print area, for example. I hope this will be fixed soon with a software update.

Crazy it's taking so long to implement a fix tbh.

Weirdly, my camera is now switching to colour whenever the LEDs aren't dimmed. Noticed it in the last hour.
Still on firmware v3.0.4 so nothings updated (that im aware of)...I've never seen so much colour !
RE:
Cam is in colour when there is enough light. It's switching to black and white (infrared?) in low light conditions.

Yes I understand how cameras work, I was a CCTV engineer for 15 years 😂
My point was until yesterday it's just been stuck in b/w mode regardless of light condition... I wonder what changed.

Go into settings/user interface and turn off auto-dimming.

Buddycam settings? Where is it located?
I can't find it anywhere? And finally: how do I update the buddycam firmware

He's referring to the Core One LED bar settings....which makes no difference whether the camera is in colour or not (at least not for me)
There are no Buddycam settings and we're not in control of firmware updates, thats pushed automatically by Prusa (Or not in this case)
No idea why it's taking so long to fix this. Really regret buying the camera now when a £5 ESP32 Cam completely outperforms the Core One camera in its current state.
Still stuck in b/w 99% of the time.
Still no local live stream
Still no timelapse

I solved the problem by adding LED strips. The camera now transmits a color image.
