Re: Annotation list
Hi Jean-Francois, right now there isn't a way to use scripting or sequencer to paste annotation data or force a reload of custom catalogs - I would have to do some work to clean up the catalog loading code and remove the duplications to make that possible. Would a reload/refresh call work best? Rat...

Re: Deep Sky Image Annotation (Not Responding)
Hi Robin, Could the use of the faster method or more accurate SOFA method be a configuration option? I use DSA with JPL minor body data to accurately pinpoint a minor bodies location and are worried this may have some impact on locating faint minor bodies using DSA. Quite happy to be told it won't :...

Dynamic Deep Sky Annotation
Hi Everybody, I was hoping there was a way to dynamically add catalogues/items to DSA via scripting? I know there is a SharpCap.Catalog object that reports 229 items. This seems to be the Messier, Caldwell and Solar System objects. However, I have Bright Stars, NGC IC and a custom catalogue ticked a...

Re: Web Server
I wasn't able to see a way to get the in-memory live stack being displayed directly but simply ended up just calling `SharpCap.LiveStacking.SaveFrameAsSeen` and sending that image in the response. At this point I'm working on a front-end client. Perhaps in a couple weeks I'll have enough to be able...

Re: Web Server
Hi Robin, In the first instance, being able to run a python script via a POST or GET would be very useful. With TheSky Professional you pass the script via TCP and receive the output. With AstroPlanner you tell it which script to run (or pass in a script) along with optional parameters (JSON) and ge...

Re: Web Server
Hi, I have started using MQTT to control SharpCap. I use a two PC system. A laptop connected to the scope and a desktop in my office. The laptop has a Mosquitto Broker installed. I was using Mosquitto on a Raspberry PI, that I use for IOT projects, but decided to have one specifically for SharpCap c...

Re: Scritping Dithering Frames
Hi Robin,
Thank you. That stopped me from shouting at my PC this weekend, when it didn't work
Could I put a feature request in for version 5'ish?
Many thanks

Re: Scritping Dithering Frames
Hi Robin, Thank you for the information. I did search the object model and couldn't find anything. I was hoping I had missed something ( I often do :D ). I will give SharpCap.Sequencer.RunSequence("...") a go with a ... GUIDING DITHER EVERY 5 FRAMES ... etc. before I start live stacking. M...

Scritping Dithering Frames
Hi Robin,
Is it possible to get/set the 'Dither every' property in the Guiding Tab when Live Stacking via the scripting model? I would like to set the dither every frame rate property remotely via a SharpCap script.
Many thanks
Pete

Re: Not enough stars with Altair Astro 294C
Hi Robin,
Thank you for solving the problem. I installed RC4 and set the 'Frame Rate Limit' to maximum and it worked. RC4 performed in the same manner as RC2 and previous betas.
Many thanks for all your help with this problem.
