BambuStudio VS OrcaSlicer

There is currently huge debate in the 3D printing world related to information logged by Bambu Lab printers.

Those printers encrypt their logged files and I’m curious to see if there is a way to decrypt them to finally seen what kind of information is stored and tracked.

Here are some sample files. What would be the first step to attempt to decrypt them? Is there a way to see which encryption method they are using and then throw hashpower to these files using tools like hashcat?

You should probably try the Appimage (the "all-is-included" package) ; if your Linux is Ubuntu or Ubuntu-based, download the one for Ubuntu from this page https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/releases/.

Now you realise that you can't fully complete the upgrade because: https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/2161

But when I start on my Mac in Bambu studio I have a problem. I seem to be affected by this bug that I can't send all plates to the printer at once (https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/1886) and thus I need to send prints individually which means I can't start the print as soon as I have cleared the previous plate but I have to open my mac again, open Bambu Studio and print the next plate.

Not sure if this is related however the last post in this thread looks similar. https://github.com/bambulab/BambuStudio/issues/753

It looks like the RTSP stream is X1C exclusive, and not available on the P1 series. Not sure about the A1 as that's new

You might also try a different slicer. I used Qidi Slicer for a couple prints but found better results from Orca Slicer and haven't looked back. You might find that Orca works better for your PETG projects. It also has calibration functions for helping set the flow ratio and pressure advance (https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/wiki/Calibration).

Might be result of https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/pull/2954

Ive never gotten qidi slicer to work that way .. use orca slicer, xsmart3 has a built in profile https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/releases

Not sure which slicer you're using but should definitely switch over to OrcaSlicer for much better print quality. OrcaSlicer

My idea is to not use Cura ;) try this one instead: https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/releases/ It's been working great since the first releases, constantly updated with the latest features from Prusa, BambooLab and self-developed things.

With the new OrcaSlicer 1.7 Beta release which includes K1 Profiles by default I decided to give OrcaSlicer a try.

Calibrate the flow ratio, the default is 0.98, which is a little high for most PLA, and should probably be 0.93-.95. Slight overextrusion results in uneven layers. You can also change the print order to outside-inside-infill, but this can cause issues with overhang quality, and masks the issue by pushing the unevenness to the inside instead of actually fixing it. https://github.com/SoftFever/OrcaSlicer/wiki/Calibration
