Progress miscalculated as zero for FF Adventurer 3 #2

Closed jptrsn closed 4 years ago

jptrsn commented 4 years ago

I'm using this project with my Flashforge Adventurer 3, and it works entirely as expected.

However, the PercentageComplete doesn't calculate as I'd expect. For a fairly small print, this is what it's returning when the screen on the device shows 76%

{"BytesPrinted":"76","BytesTotal":"100","PercentageCompleted":0}

Also, can you share any resources that helped you learn how to reverse engineered the API from the device? I'd like to figure out if I can stream the camera feed, but so far I've had no luck finding any information about the way they've implemented the device API.

Interesting, so the Adventurer gives you back percentage, my Finder gives me number of bytes instead.

Try pulling the latest version. I'm assuming you're running Python 2? Version 2/3 seem to handle casting differently so I had to add an explicit cast.

No specific resources, try Wireshark on port 8899.

I bet they have a separate (HTTP) server for the camera feed, I don't think this API is suitable for video streams.

I'm closing this one, please let me know if it didn't solve the issue and I'll open it again. 👍
