Bambu Studio V2.6.1 Beta is built on V2.6.0 Public Release, with the Filament Manager introduced as a key new feature, along with several improvements and bug fixes.
And it (as did V2.06.00.51) wiped all the custom filament and nozzle profiles, froze countless times and failed to recognise the printer despite showing it was connected. If you’re going to release a BETA version, at least have it load and keep all the previous detail. Back to 2.2.2.56.
I had the same problem. All I did was lig out then log back in, it then asked me if I wanted to download my presets. You just have to give it some time. It was frozen at 0 on the load bar for some time before all of a sudden going.
Bambu, you continue to mention the Filament Track Switch module in your release notes w/ a reference to the H2C requiring Firmware 1.2.0 but that firmware version is nowhere to be found and when I attached a new Filament Track Switch to the H2C this morning, hoping it would recognize a new device and reach out to your servers to grab the firmware required for the Filament track switch, I got nothing. Not even a recognition of a foreign device. My X2D, as mentioned on your page, works just fine with the Fillament Track Switch. Please show the H2 community some love.
Nope…did that… made no difference. It was a new setup…requiring login AFTER going through setup as a new user. Logging in made no difference. I’ll stick with the older version that works without the issues and wait for a stable version.
Keep in mind the Beta versions store the user settings and profiles in a distinct location from the release versions. So on first use it will appear as a new install with no saved settings. Presumably profiles with eventually sync with the cloud if one uses that feature (and/or they can be copied manually of course). Whether one wants profiles created/edited with a beta version to mix with ones created by the release versions is questionable.
IMHO this really should be mentioned with each beta release announcement.
