Re: 183MC-Pro weirdness with SC 4.1.12025.0 (64-bit)

Thank you Robin. I'll those steps a try if it happens again. I'm in the garage as I type this capturing darks with the ASI2600MC-Pro which is directly connected to the laptop. I'm capturing 90 second darks and just after I started I noticed the camera fan shut off and then went back on. Not an unusu...

Re: 183MC-Pro weirdness with SC 4.1.12025.0 (64-bit)

I'm in the middle of an EAA session and the 183MC is doing it again with the same warning message in the log file. The problem is it's in the middle of a live stack. Since I don't know if I can pause the stack and close/open the camera and then restart the stack I just canceled and closed the camera...

Re: Mini-Histogram Stretch Button

Robin, Yes, I'm aware of the <SHIFT> key options. My problem is the dragging part because I only want to make a 0.1dB adjustment and usually the trackball does more than one. That is why I started using the arrow keys in hopes of making only 0.1dB adjustments but I'm having trouble with both methods...

Re: Mini-Histogram Stretch Button

The last two EAA sessions I spent a lot of time late in the stacks adjusting the color balance. My laptop with the trackball mouse (which I like) is just not ideal for making these important last minor adjustments. About every other time I try to use the 0.1dB adjustment I mess it up. Either the too...

Re: 183MC-Pro weirdness with SC 4.1.12025.0 (64-bit)

Thank you Robin. I'm using the exact same hardware and cables with a 294MM in Unlocked Bin1 and an 2600MC pro and have not seen the problem. I would think the data transfer to be equivalent. I'll run through all the tips and see if something needs an adjustment. I am using a full USB set up. Powered...

183MC-Pro weirdness with SC 4.1.12025.0 (64-bit)

I bought a new ASI183MC-Pro a couple weeks ago and I've experienced some strange things. After opening the camera in SC and everything appearing correct it has stopped working 2-3 times. The first time I noticed this was while taking a flat frame so I disconnected and reconnected the camera and it w...

Re: Mini-Histogram Stretch Button

[thinking out loud a bit more based on the last couple EAA sessions where I spent a lot of time making final R-G-B color adjustments] The ±0.1 dB color adjustment seems to be the maximum allowable late in a stack with higher histogram stretch settings. That is, even a 0.1 dB adjustment can make an ...

Re: Mini-Histogram Stretch Button

I've been paying more attention to the mini-histogram the last couple of nights (actually the first clear nights in three weeks). Something that I was not regularly doing until I started using the ±0.1dB changes in the live stack histogram by clicking on the slider and using the up-down arrow keys. ...

Re: Mini-Histogram Stretch Button

With all this discussion so far I'm still not sure if the Mini-Histogram can be a final adjustment measurement tool. I've reached my "level of detail" limit visually using the laptop image and Live Stack Histogram. That is, I'm not able to discern which final 0.1dB R-G-B adjustments best a...
