32-bit FITS and dark ring in stars
I'm not sure if this is a bug report or operator error. I've not had many EAA opportunities lately and the last time out I only did one short live stack of IC 342. I saved a PNG (saved with adjustments) and a 32-bit FITS stack. The PNG is fine but the 32-bit FITS looks like this. IC342_ScrnGb_APP_Sm...

Re: DSO Live Stack Histogram and Preprocessing
That sounds great Robin and I completely understand the focus on planetary right now. I have a 678MC/ADC planetary kit just for the C11 but the clouds have been relentless.

DSO Live Stack Histogram and Preprocessing
Robin, With all the improvements you have made to planetary live stacking, which are wonderful, is there a chance you have some DSO live stacking feature enhancements in the works? Features to improve histogram stretch modes and pre-processing gradient reduction would be on the top of my list. Histo...

Re: ASI2400MC-Pro flat(dark) problem with SC freezing
Robin, This is similar to my 294MM experience where things change when reopening, even when the remember camera settings box is checked. I don't use "Auto" for any settings but somehow the 2400 opened with the Turbo USB on Auto and I missed it. I'll make sure my startup workflow includes a...

ASI2400MC-Pro flat(dark) problem with SC freezing
SharpCap v4.1.12717.0 (X64, 64 bit) running on an HP Envy i7-13700H Laptop ASI2400MC-Pro camera, full frame, Bin1, RAW16, FITS I've attached three logs. This problem happened three times in a row and then I gave up trying to figure out what happened. I was taking flat frames and the flat(bias) was f...

Re: 294MM always opens Bin1 in 11Mp mode
Robin, I checked the general setting to "restore last" and it's checked. I also opened and closed the 294MM a couple of times and it still opens in Bin1 when it was set to Bin2 upon closing. This will not be a big deal for me soon because I'm trading the 294 for a 533 but thought you shoul...

294MM always opens Bin1 in 11Mp mode
Robin, I've only recently been using the 294MM in 11Mp Bin2 mode with the C11. When I finish and close the camera it's in 11Mp Bin2 mode. Every time with a new session when I open the 294MM it's set to Bin1. I thought the settings when closing a camera were remembered when it's re-opened. If I don't...

Re: Recent issues
I do not have a screen shot but have also experienced the early frame stacking over the FWHM filter setpoint. This is typically the first frame and occasionally the second frame, but not after the second frame. I just chalked it up to SharpCap needing some reference frames to get rolling. And if the...

Gemini Telescope.net caused SharpCap to quit
SC Version 4.1.12551, Windows 10 Mini-PC at mount I've never had an issue with the G11G (Gemini2) and SharpCap before but last night SharpCap quit and sent the automatic report. Hopefully you received this report and I'm curious what happened. Whatever it was the mount stopped responding to both Ste...

Re: AM5 Drifting Initially
Thank you Robin, your excellent support is much appreciated, especially for something that has nothing to do with SharpCap. I'll turn on the mount hardware communication logging option next time out. I'm a bit embarrassed to say I'm not aware of the polar alignment rotation buttons. I've been using ...
