Printer extrudes faster than filament problem
Hey there, My name is Alex and I am new here.
I have some problem
The extruder start moving before the filament is actually going out.
I decided to upload a video to explain the problem
My printer is geektech purse i3 x pro and the plea filament is next configuration:
Bed heat: 65c
Extruder heat: 200c and i also try on 230c and the result is the same.

You need to preload the filament with some start.gcode instructions probably.

Easy way is to program or skirt or brim around the model to prime your extruder. Try increasing the temperature as well.
You also need to increase the bed height and improve the adhesion, as the filament is just being dragged around by the head at the moment.
You only want the thickness of a piece of paper between the head and the bed and try using some glue stick on the build bed if you are printing with PLA, or some acetone with ABS dissolved in it for ABS printing.
