I replaced my belt that had snapped and tightened it with the tension adjuster. Now, either the tension is too tight to allow the Y-axis belt motors to move the bed, or otherwise, the bed skips at some point during the print at least once, offsetting the entire print and ruining it.
Perhaps I could increase the power to the motor, but how would I do that, and also is that smart judging by the factory settings power limit? I don't want to overpower the motor, the belt is pretty much identical to the one before it so I would imagine it should be the same performance.

- Anycubic Mega X
Here is a link to some videos of the belt being moved manually. I can see it skipping on the belt here at various tensions. does this show anything particularly telling? I am almost certain the two belts are the same, but maybe I'm wrong..
Belt tight (too tight to allow the Y-axis belt motors to move the bed):
Belt loose (the bed skips at some point during the print):
