Re: Planetary Live Stacking ?
Thanks for pointing that out to me. I did not know that feature was there. I searched the manual by the wrong keyword ( User instead of Camera ) Will Experiment. Love the videos that Mike ( Borodog ) has been posting. I cant wait until he gets some clear sky to see him set up live and set the ROI. M...

Re: Planetary Live Stacking ?
I had similar thought but my idea was User Profiles for DSO and Planetary usages. Thru time, experimentation and help from others I was pretty happy with my DSO settings. It took much uumpf to get the nerve to wipe them out to try the Planetary Feature. The new Planetary imaging tool is an Amazing f...

Re: New Feature : SharpSolve - SharpCap's new built-in plate solver
+1 for 0.25 FOV . My 6Se with .reducer and Player One Uranus C camera is 0.34 and my 11SCT with same camera is 0.22. I have to use binning X 2 to get fairly consistent solving with ASTAP now. ( D80 database ) Would be so nice to have it work right within Sharpcap . Thanks so much - You're Amazing !!...

Re: Having trouble plate solving
Thought I would follow up. Issue resolved, Thanks to help from Robin - and others on CN and Han at ASTAP. I deleted all my software and reloaded from scratch. I had been reluctant to do so for fear of losing what I had. New ASCOM and Drivers - New ASTAP Suite 6.6SP1 - New CPWI 2.5.2 - and Newest Sha...

Re: Having trouble plate solving
Sorry for the Delay - I did not see the PM alert * and was watching for an email in my Email Account. DOH !
I sent the files and data of what I have learned and tried.
I chose a fresh image of IC 1230. Nice Star-field.
Thanks so much for what you do !

Re: Having trouble plate solving

It checkmarks the jobs and begins the plate solve w...

Re: Having trouble plate solving
Some progress to report . A friend in Mid USA sent me an image that was known to solve . I had wondered if my Images were the issue - or my equipment - or my settings -- or ....... ?? About a week ago I caught a one hour window of clear sky and I captured some images in areas with good star fields. ...

Re: Having trouble plate solving
Robin - Thank You for the Reply. Thursday Night was Clear - I experimented with Binning, I have never tried it before. I read some about it but still pretty confused. I tried the 2 - 3 - and 4 settings. I did get several successful solve and sync's with 4x -and one with 3x. None with 2x. I was a lit...
