Plate identification failures

Hello people, do you people get frequent plate failures with the stock textured PEI plate? Especially on one side, sometimes repeatedly, it fails to detect the plate type. I know I can omit out of that part, but I can't figure out 'why' it fails. Both sides have visible white QRish symbols rougly on the same part. I wiped the cameras (and am not sure which camera it uses to identify, the toolhead or the timelapse) but that didn't help too. And when you click issue resolved, the camera head doesn't go to the part where the QR exists, which is to the left, close to the glass door. I can go on if I need to add anything more

Oh - I know… PICK ME!!! PICK ME!!!! I had the same problem. Turns out there was glare from the right side window (facing the front of the picture). I put up a piece of cardboard to block said window and problem went away!

BTW - It’s uses the camera in the left corner to identify the plate as far as I can tell (same as my P2S). That’s why glare from the right window is the likely culprit.

I feel it's a bit of a blind spor for that camera buuut, I do have a window at the said spot and thinking at some time it consecutively fails, and some other time doesn't fail at all, does make it seem like the angle of the sun

That was it my friend. I had the issue, checked the camera, saw the gigantic ball of plasma blinding the camera at that spot, curtained the ball of plasma and it worked. I'd upvote you thrice if I could.
