Hi Don, those errors are odd - I can see enough detail to know that they look like a networking error not being handled correctly, but there is nothing to point to where the error is coming from. In particular, there's no trackback to any particular code in SharpCap. I have reviewed all the places t...

Hi Peter, yes, a read only folder would cause problems becauser SharpCap cannot write its test file (and would not be able to write the capture files anyway). Normally you should be able to remove that in Windows Explorer (right click on the folder, choose properties, unselect 'read only'). cheers, ...

Hi,

yes, I agree that the use of the existing dark doesn't always make sense - I have added a notification to SharpCap 4.1 to explain why the dark/bias options are disabled.

cheers,

Hi, if your license code is still valid then you can recover the code here : https://store.astrosharp.co.uk/Recovery - just enter the email address used to purchase the license and you will get the code re-sent to you. Note that most licenses only last for one year, so if you bought your license a l...

Hi folks, another update for you (no SharpCap 4.0 update this week - nothing significant has changed with 4.0 since last time). https://d.sharpcap.co.uk/download.html?version=4.1.9959.0&arch=x64 What's new this week? * Fixes for scripting issues such as not being able to AddReference on some ass...

Hi

let's go for 2.5 - some safety margin there, but not a large unused margin. If we see figures creeping up to that range (or above) then we can look again to work out if it is valid to increase the range further.

cheers,

Hi Trev, I had a look, and within 30 minutes I had some code that will (I hope) read the humidity and show it in the controls on the right. I say 'I hope' because I don't have a 268M camera to try it out. This change will be in the next update to SharpCap 4.1 Beta (see the beta testing forum for dow...

Hi, almost certainly you already had a dark frame selected in the controls on the right. If you already have a dark frame selected then the 'Capture Flat' window thinks that you have already taken care of dark frames, so it doesn't offer you any choices (it will just work with the dark frame already...

Hi, @Astropete - you need to actually create the directory that you want SharpCap to use before typing it in (use Windows explorer to create it). If you type in a directory that doesn't exist then SharpCap will not accept it. Another way to do it is to use the '...' button on the right to browse for...

Hi,

currently SharpCap doesn't read from the humidity sensor - I will have a quick look to see how much work it is to add support.

cheers,

Robin
