Hi Robin, I just tested the 'STOP AT LOCALTIME' wrapper and it works perfect! Re: The 'pad' and 'partialCollection' section I posted -- I won't really have control over that since a user can stack up all sorts of steps to occur inside the 'partialCollection' routine with any amount of time to comple...

Hi Robin, one other question... Would it be possible to add an optional switch to the 'LOOP UNTIL LATER THAN LOCALTIME' and similar time based instructions... which would apply a strict enforcement? Right now, if a collection is occurring, but that collection runs past the specified 'LOCALTIME', it'...

Ah, one more thing... Maybe LinuxKidd has already thought of this, but it occured to me that if something goes wrong part way through for some unpredictable reason then you might need to restart the sequence from scratch to continue (after camera glitch, sequence error, SharpCap crash, whatever). U...

Lots more tweaks.. The biggest is a shift to using the Browser's in-built "local storage" to store and track changes made to your collection plan and settings! So now, when you load the page again on the same browser, it'll restore all your prior settings and steps for you to continue twea...

I've tweaked things a bit, and added some new features as well. Pre eclipse capture occurs at (C1)-60 seconds Last 'Partial Collection Plan' kicks off at (C2) - ( Bailys Offset ) - 60 seconds Thus, giving a 60 second buffer for the last Partial collection to end, and camera to card write buffers to ...

Hi all, With the release of SharpCap 4.1.11922, I think the script and SharpCap are now both feature complete for eclipse sequence capture! Also, in my recent test, I see there's a prefix to each ser file generated by the sequence, so this will completely eliminate the risk of name collision during ...

can you explain the Baily's Beads Capture Offset in the Interval settings? And what's your recommendation? Hi joeytrotz, The intention is to provide a separate collection plan for Baily's Beads ( the few seconds just before and just after totality, where sunlight is peeking through craters on the s...

If I am out somewhere with no internet connection , can I setup and run this program? Indeed you can! Open the page in your web browser. Right click the web page, and click 'Save Page As' or 'Save As', etc.. ( wording may be different based on the browser ) Save the file some place you can find it,...

I used TargetName to get around the short time file collisions. Set the TargetName to T1, Set Exposure to 1ms, Capture 3 frames Set the TargetName to T2, Set Exposure to 5ms, Capture 3 frames Set the TargetName to T3, Set Exposure to 10ms, Capture 3 frames Steve. Unfortunately, this wouldn't get ar...

Hi again, @Robin...

It looks like 'LOOP UNTIL AFTER LOCALTIME' isn't an available instruction? I couldn't find an equivalent in the help / sequence editor either.. is this one you plan to add, or am I missing something?

Thanks,
LK
