I found the solution that I needed if only a limited number of frames are affected. In AutoStakkert!, after doing the analyze frames, hit the enter key while at the frame you want to delete. This imparts a red coloring to the image size box. Select analyze again and the frame will be deleted from th...

Wow, you do a lot of lunar! Nice shots - they look like they were from a lunar orbiter!

Hi Dave, Yes, I did find the document useful. I usually use the AutoStakkert framing sliders to initially set a smaller ROI to analyze and stack, partly to minimize framing issues caused either by wind or imperfect tracking and partly to speed up the stacking process. Even then, I sometimes still en...

Hi Robin, We're not talking about renaming existing files. We're talking about entering or changing the target folder while live stacking and before saving the stack. The way it used to work for all the versions of SharpCap I've ever used up to fairly recently is that you could do this (as long as y...

Dave, It looks like you chose an area of interest in PIPP that did not include the portions affected by the wind judder (blacked out in AutoStakkert). What would the result have looked like had you included the whole first frame in the PIPP area of interest (or had not set an area of interest)? Than...

Yes, it's "working," but I agree with the original poster that it is far from ideal to have to reset the livestack in order to have it use the changed target name. As the poster said, if you forget to set the target name until after you start live stacking and then try to save the stack, i...

Great rendition! That's cool.

Hey, at least you got it! Nice shot! Isn't that something to see! It's been a long time since we've had a comet like that!

Here are a couple single DLSR/tripod shots from a few nights ago. Nikon D5000. ISO 800. First one 4 seconds at f/4.5 48 mm, second one 4 seconds f/6.3 300 mm.

We actually had some clear weather finally and it happened to coincide with Neowise being visible in the night sky as well as the morning sky for us starting about 10:45 PM local time. I wouldn't worry too much about using your normal observing locations; just take some binoculars (and a DSLR and tr...
