It cannot be stressed how vital this kind of educational presentation is, especially to first-timers who are holding a BTT board with a terse little card in point 4 font and going WTF. A lot of us have been there. Thank you very much.
Yep, I have a Mini e3v3 and a Manta m8p ive shelved due to not being told how to sort this properly. Then i went out and brought MKS boards im having the same nightmares with. At the moment ive got two Ender5plus's doing jack because im to dumb to sort it out. But now, With a little luck... Happydays.
excellent content, I looked for everything on how to install the original fysetc e4 firmware and your information was the most relevant to trying to solve my problem. very good👍
A major thing to consider also is how your screen, I have a BTT TFT E3 V3.0, and I didn't realize for a long time until trying to print higher temp filaments recently that the screen firmware also has max values for temperature safety and you need to modify the .ini file when updating the screen firmware. I was upgrading the temp in Marlin but my screen only raised it to 275, but in Marlin mode, it would raise to above it, that's when I realized. Hope this helps someone with an issue. Ha ha.
Good point, but let's remember we can only pack so much information into a video. The point in this video was learning to install and setup build environment. I'll be doing some updated TFT display videos in the future.
Nice video Ed.. I built my corexy 300 x 300 x 300 printer with a bigtree tech skr 1.3 board what configuration do think I should use .. it’s a home built machine from parts I acquired myself mate… cheers from Australia..
Ahhhh.... When ive got VSC open im constantly getting pop ups that ruin the play time. Im talking every 10seconds or so and also the c++ errors when VSC starts up. Confuses the hell out of me as i didnt know what was wrong but hopefully now i do. I just hit install x64 and then added the Platformio, marlin, and C++ in VSC but it never seems to jell. Me now thinks time to uninstall and do it all properly.. You Sir may have wisened me up to the next level (which there seems to be so many). It was getting seriously depressing failing everytime. THANK YOU.
Question. I have an Lk5 pro but would like to replace the motherboard and touchscreen with an ender 3 max motherboard/touchscreen. If I utilize Marlin, can I make this work, or are the two systems incompatible? Please advise, and thank you in advance.
I miss the days of working within the Arduino IDE directly and just clicking upload.... I feel like the docker/VScode/linux dev container BS is so overly complicated. I have not been able to get the dependencies to all install without errors in VScode.
Amigo, Obrigado pelo seu tempo em ajudar nós leigos, estava vendo o esquema eletrico da skr2. queria colocar um esp32 hm-et- live que tem sobrado aqui , com jumpers, para usar o wifi. (sem ser aquele modo comprado). por acaso ja tentou usar?
hey ed I was wondering if you could make a video on how to do this on the skr pro v1.0 like you did before but an new updated video on how to do this thank you for your videos
So if you have 2 different boards. Say a SKR 1.4 and an SKR 2.0. How do you prevent VS Code from overwriting your config files? Each board is on different printers with different features. I would not want to overwrite either the config.h or the config_adv.h files because they are needed in the future. Thanks very good video.
@@EdwardBraiman So would I need a second folder for SKR 1.4 then make another copy of Marlin and put it in the SKR 1.4 folder? That is where I am confused. If I modify the config files for SKR 2.0 in Platform IO. Currently I lose the changes in the config for the SKR 1.4 board. There are like 20 differences between the files ....I don't want to keep typing it in.
I'm hoping you will read this and give me some assistance please. I have spent, on and off, two days trying to compile my own Marlin firmware but on every attempt, I'm stymied by PlatformIO. It just won't install and I see very lengthy error messages full of incomprehensible jargon I can't cope with. It seems it needs configurations from Python, so one error message demanded that I install Python, which I did but it made no difference. I have watched your well presented CZcams video on this, and a few others, too. In no case are any of you experiencing PlatformIO errors. I would love it if someone would help me crack this infernal block by PlatformIO. Thanks
Usually when Marlin firmware update changes a process I update a video. So I'm making a playlist for Marlin and VScode to point people to. As for Klipper, I'm still working on it, but need to get answers from manufacturer on hw for some stuff.

It's the best tutorial I've seen so far, really great.
Thanks.

Thanks.
This is how you teach - perfect!
Thanks.
Thanks for sharing & all the knowledge and work put into this video❤
Thanks. Working on a new series to get people interested in a budget. Only recorded a few videos, but in coming weeks it's going to get interesting.
@@EdwardBraiman yeah, keep up the good work. I like your videos👍.
extremely useful tutorial. Thanks
You're welcome.
thanks for you explanation, very educational. I will be following you...
Thanks.
Thank you.
Great video
Thanks.
This is invaluable. Gold in the shape of a video. Thank you thank you thank you!

SKR 1.4 is similar, but depends on MCU.

I'd need more detail on the hardware, if you enter Chat for Discord either myself or someone else can help in General Chat.

O Esp32 está no ar WiFI. Minha preferência é Raspberry Pi 3/4 ou Parpberry Pi Zero 2 W para melhores resultados e gravação de vídeo impresso.
Great video thank you.
What about arduino mega2560 adk
Mega2560 is a MCU for RAMPs and other boards. Not sure I understand question. There's a Discord link in Description.
hey ed I was wondering if you could make a video on how to do this on the skr pro v1.0 like you did before but an new updated video on how to do this thank you for your videos
Already have a playlist for SKR pro 1.x. only new step would be ini folder for environment.
@@EdwardBraiman I know I have watched it all over and you did say that there is a new way to do it something about a updated way?
great tutorial. I'll have to watch it a few more times.
vs code is freaking weird.
Actually vscode once you get used to it is very good.
So if you have 2 different boards. Say a SKR 1.4 and an SKR 2.0. How do you prevent VS Code from overwriting your config files? Each board is on different printers with different features. I would not want to overwrite either the config.h or the config_adv.h files because they are needed in the future.
Thanks very good video.
Normally store files in folders on the computer or build them again or store them on SD card in SD drive slot on motherboard.
@@EdwardBraiman So would I need a second folder for SKR 1.4 then make another copy of Marlin and put it in the SKR 1.4 folder? That is where I am confused.

@muskateer10 the outpost of the build goes to .pio folder in vscode.
Not connecting to the COM port in Windows 10.

For the algo.
and from now on you will be redoing it every single time there is new update. just from that reason KLIPPER user here
