Optional stretching of 12 bit s image saved using the FITS format
Hi, I tried to use the new feature of SC 3.1.5047 related to the optional stretch of a 12 bits image when saved using the FITS format (RAW 16 colour space). I use a ZWO ASI 174MMC camera with a 12 bits ADC onboard. However the saved FITS image is always stretched to 16 bits, indipendently from the f...

Horizontal scale of the histogram
I suggest to add the log option also to the horizontal scale of the histogram. It may be useful when deep sky images contains some bright areas. When the acquistion parameters are selected to avoid over exposition, most of the image contains low level signals and the histogram appears extremely comp...

WAR: Could not obtain write lock within 1 s
Every time I start a new live stack the first frame is ignored and the message "Frame not stacked because: Could not obtain write lock within 1s" is displayed. My camera is a ZWO ASI071MC Pro (4944x3284 pixels), and normally I do not use the align feature because it is not strictly necessa...

In fact, the file is reported to be of the GBRG type, while the correct path is RGGB. I enclose a view of the wrong header obtained using the most recent version of SC. For compa...

Norton antivirus stops Sharpcap web page
Hi,
today when I tried to connect to sharpcap.co.uk I was stopped by Norton antivirus. Apparently a Trojan virus has been detected in one of the previous releases of Sharpcap (see attachment) and now the site is classified by Norton as "potentially dangerous".

Re: Avalon StarGo problem
Hi, after a long sleep, things appears more clear. As you suggested, the ZWO camera problem was due to the "comma/dot" problem in the old capture profile files. The old version used a dot to separate decimals, while the new one is compliant with the national version of Windows, and - in my...

Re: Avalon StarGo problem
Hi, unfortunately after installation of the professional version of SC (3.0.3881) the initial load error cannot be bypassed. In fact, with previous 2.10.xx versions it was sufficient do not press the "Properties" button to connect and manage the Avalon mount. Now after the warning message ...

Using different languages in the user interface
Hi, have you considered the possibility of using different languages in the user interface? This feature is available in competitors like, for example, Nebulosity. I suppose that nowadays there are other priorities, but in the future is could be interesting to allow international users to choose ove...
