Local Agent · 3D printing

Your 3D printer, live on stream.

The agent bridges your printer's camera and puts it on your channel automatically, only while a print is actually running — then stops cleanly when the job finishes. No 24/7 camera, no false "you're live" alerts between prints.

The idea

Live while it's printing. Off when it's not.

Point the agent at your printer's camera — a Creality K2 over WebRTC, for example — and it takes care of the rest. The stream starts when a print starts and stops cleanly when the job finishes, so you never end up broadcasting an idle build plate or firing a go-live alert for nothing.

Because it's the agent doing the bridging, the feed reaches your channel the same way any other agent-driven source does: captured and encoded locally, then restreamed copy-only to everywhere you're connected.

What it handles

Built for time-lapse-length streams.

Starts and stops with the print

The agent watches for an active print job and airs the camera only while it's running.

Clean, constant frame rate

Holds a steady CFR the recorder and platforms accept, so a multi-hour print records as one continuous video instead of a pile of short clips.

Optional status overlay

Nozzle temp, progress percentage and ETA, burned in on the agent side — no third-party overlay needed.

Auto-titles the stream

Sets the title to "3D Printing" automatically, so your channel reflects what's actually going on.

Before you start: the printer's camera needs to be reachable on your LAN, and you'll want the latest agent build — the steady-frame-rate fixes that make long prints record cleanly landed recently.
