I got mine from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The AdaFruit cable is cheaper--until you factor in shipping. I have Prime, so...
I have one printer with the Pi camera and one with a Microsoft webcam. The pi camera is easier to mount, and it works, but the colors are awful if you have fluorescent or LED lighting. I had to break the lens loose and screw it out a turn or so to get the camera to focus close enough. I'm also getting very slow frame rates from the Pi camera. I would have thought it would be faster.
The USB webcam (Microsoft LifeCam Cinema) works great. It has much better color and it auto-focuses, which is both a blessing and a curse. The frame rate seems much better as well, and it doesn't seem to interfere with printing. I don't have a mount for it yet, but probably will design something soon.

Yeah, with the timeout at its original setting, OctoPrint would just keep firing off gcodes to the printer without waiting for an acknowledgement. And the printer is busy during a G29, and can't acknowledge. When G29 finishes and the printer finally opens up and starts taking commands again, it's expecting (say) command 29, while OctoPrint is sending it command 250. That's where the "wrong line number" comes from.

Has anyone tried replacing their LCD with OctoPiPanel + PiTFT?

Not yet, but I have been wondering if it was possible to connect the LCD to the RasPi.

You're probably better off replacing it with the cheap 2.8" 320x240 full-colour touchscreens that adafruit sells. That's my plan anyhow.

got my webcam in today and all setup :-)
Now i can watch my prints from another room or if it is a fairly short build i can build from work and watch to make sure nothing goes wrong :-)
sniffle.is-a-geek.net :-) for those bored people that like watching printers run :-P

Octoprint can't connect to printer
I was previously able to use Octoprint on my Raspberry B+ with the baud rate of 115200 (I think). After upgrading the Makerfarm/Ramps to the Itty Bitty Dual extruder, I can't connect at any rate.
I see in configuration.h the rate is set at 250000 but every setting in Octoprint returns "Connecting..." until the timeout.
Any tips?
Code:Changing monitoring state from 'Offline' to 'Opening serial port' Connecting to: /dev/ttyAMA0 Connected to: Serial<id=0x29494b0, open=True>(port='/dev/ttyAMA0', baudrate=250000, bytesize=8, parity='N', stopbits=1, timeout=2.0, xonxoff=False, rtscts=False, dsrdtr=False), starting monitor Changing monitoring state from 'Opening serial port' to 'Connecting' Send: M105 Send: M105 Send: M105 Send: M105 Send: M105 Changing monitoring state from 'Connecting' to 'Closed'

You should be connecting to /dev/tty/ACM0. /dev/tty/AMA0 is the built-in serial port of the Pi.
Printing time- Is this right?
