TBH, I thought that truncating the data payload in the top of the image file had been done on purpose to stop it interfering with the processing of auto gain settings which finally works properly (and makes finessing of the settings so much easier). :lol: I have been doing my own testing, including ...

I've had a couple of nights playing/testing and have to say I do like this a lot. Thanks for sharing, and I'm learning a lot about Python tinkering with it. Needless to say though, I have some suggestions :) Firstly, I'd like to see the output filename prefixed something like 2023-08-26 11_14_17Z Sh...

This looks excellent and follows my manual workflow nicely. I've loaded it up on my Observatory PC and will give it a go tonight!

It could work very well if every x frame was used as a guide frame. It would't really help with PE, but could be useful with less than perfect polar alignment over a long exposure. This image was an example using hyperstar and 12s exposures - over an hour the drift is quite noticeable, but I don't c...

Hi all, another Occultation timer here - I never knew there were so many of us :) I've been dual recording events from my observatory using a video setup timestamped with IOTA-VTI and with an ASI174MM using NTP timing and can say that I can't find a significant delay using (the magnificent) SharpCap...

Many thanks!

Takes some juggling to get those ups and downs, lefts and rights co-ordinated :lol: I'm probably the only user in the world who routinely places the target on the edge of the field and th...
