SharpCap Forums

I have also seen this, which I believe I communicated in a private email. Here is another report on CN: https://www.cloudynights.com/topic/921210-anyone-know-how-i-can-get-rid-of-these-green-dots/#entry13430665 That thread actually contains *two* reports, in fact, as MarMax (who also posts here) chi...

I'd like to say SharpCap has become the go to for live EAA on NSN ( Night Skies Network) . It helps produce the very best images while live streaming a broadcast. Robin has done wonders with it. Each Time we turn around he has added a new fantastic feature. While not a knock on SharpCap and or Robi...

Actually I just realized there is no need to register to the first light, as SharpCap will register and stack each successive light. You only to register the separate filter subs for each other to create each LRGB composite sub.

If you are proficient with scripting, you should be able to accomplish this now, using two instances of SharpCap and scripted registration & processing software like Sirl. Use the sequence planner in SharpCap to automate the capture of the lights, switching of the filters, refocus, etc. Have a s...

I would like to 2nd the idea of 0.1 dB nudge buttons above and below the sliders. I rarely enjoy trying to find my keyboard keys in the dark. And imagine how difficult these small adjustments would be running SharpCap on a Surface tablet, as I know some people do.

Robin, Yes, I would like to have the dead zone as small as possible. The other night I believe I ultimately settled on 25 pixels, but I'd prefer it to be less than 10. But then the noise in the samples becomes significant; when a sample breaks out of the dead zone, SharpCap wakes up and issues a lar...

Robin, Got my GP back from being relubed and was able to test Feature Tracking calibration last night using the prerelease option. Calibration went without a hitch. It did take quite a while watching the scatter plot to then translate that calibration into settings that did not leave the Moon jumpin...

Robin, FYI a few nights ago the frame rate on my ASI183MC also dropped to zero for no apparent reason. I've rarely had any problems with the camera. The camera was connected, there were no errors, the frame rate just fell to 1 and then ultimately 0 and stayed there. I closed and reopened SharpCap an...

Thanks, Robin. Will test ASAP.

Good to hear. My GP is in the process of being torn down by a friend m to be de- and re-greased with a lubricating oil instead of a sticky grease. I am hopeful that will make the mount easier to calibrate and guide. It isn’t only SharpCap that had trouble; PHD2 could (sometimes) calibrate, but the g...
