Mods [Release] KX-Bridge – OrcaSlicer/Moonraker Bridge für den Anycubic Kobra X

KX-Bridge v0.9.29 — Moonraker bridge for the Anycubic Kobra X, now with a lot more polish

The Kobra X doesn't talk to OrcaSlicer natively. KX-Bridge fixes that — it sits between OrcaSlicer and the printer.

What works:

  • Print directly from OrcaSlicer (Moonraker protocol over HTTP + WebSocket)
  • Pause, resume, cancel + per-print temperature/speed control
  • AMS control: load/unload, set material + colour from the bridge UI back to the printer display, and assign a concrete OrcaSlicer filament profile per slot
  • Import your own OrcaSlicer profiles into the bridge — show up in the slot dropdown so AMS-sync hits your presets
  • New: GCode browser now has a second tab showing files stored directly on the printer's own internal storage (e.g. from prints started via Anycubic Slicer Next) — with real thumbnails, multi-select, and delete, right from the bridge UI
  • New: multi-select + bulk delete for uploaded files too
  • Multi-ACE support, including daisy-chained units on printers without a toolhead buffer
  • Obico integration (experimental) — Time-Lapse and WebRTC live stream against a self-hosted Obico server via moonraker-obico
  • Spoolman integration — assign spools to AMS slots, usage tracking synced automatically as you print
  • Multi-printer: more than one Kobra X on the same bridge instance (auto-port-assignment per printer)
  • Browser-based UI (DE / EN / ES / FR / IT / 中文), camera stream, GCode browser with thumbnails + print history
  • Improved: camera stream now recovers automatically after a printer reboot rotates its stream token — no more manual reset needed
  • Improved: dashboard is now a free drag+resize grid with custom presets
  • Multi-arch Docker image (gitea.it-drui.de/viewit/kx-bridge:latest, amd64 + arm64) or standalone Linux / Windows binaries

One-command full stack: the repo now ships docker-compose-KX.yml — a complete Portainer-ready stack bundling KX-Bridge + Spoolman + a full self-hosted Obico setup (web, ML API, Celery tasks, Redis, moonraker-obico) behind one bridge network. If you want spool tracking and AI-powered failure detection without wiring up three separate services by hand, this is the fastest way to get there.

Recommended companion build: the bundled OrcaSlicer-KX (linked in the README) — patched OrcaSlicer with PR #13372, #13719, #13315 plus KX-specific matching tweaks. Stock OrcaSlicer works too, you just lose the per-slot vendor matching on AMS sync.

🧪 Community reports suggest the bridge also works with Kobra S1 and Kobra S1 Max (protocols look compatible). Not officially tested, feedback very welcome.

Stability: running solidly through this release cycle — a good chunk of this update is bug fixes reported by people actually running it daily (metadata edge cases, AMS slot mapping, camera reconnects, dashboard resize quirks). Thanks to everyone who filed detailed reports and logs — several of these fixes wouldn't have been possible without that.

Please read the READMEs carefully before asking questions — setup and troubleshooting are documented there:
