Re: Problem loading photos into Deep Sky Stacker

Thank you so much for taking the time to figure this out. Makes me feel better that I’m not a complete idiot.

I will try the fix.

I will now also save images as FIT files.

Problem loading photos into Deep Sky Stacker

I cannot seem to get DSS to load my individual photos.

Is it because they were saved as PNG files?

Thank you

Re: Cannot get rid of hot pixels

Robin,

I did as recommended.

You can see that the temperature is at 0 degrees, gain at 100, exposure at 30s.

I have the Hot Pixel Removal at 1 and at 10. I cannot seem to get it higher than 10.

I see no difference.

Re: Cannot get rid of hot pixels

Robin,

Thank you for the reply.

I have tried suppression at 2 and 8

I have taken 15 darks at the same temperature and gain.

I will try using the 0 degrees.

Cannot get rid of hot pixels

Hello.

No matter what I try (Hot Pixel Suppression or Darks) I cannot seem to get rid of these trailing hot pixels. I do not use a Guidescope since the images are only 30 or 60 second frames in my ZWO 533MC Pro at -15 degrees. What am I doing wrong?

Re: Platesolve3

Thank you for the reply.

Any idea on potential release date for 4.1? (I'm not computer savvy and don't understand much of your explanation on how to use PS3.)
