SharpCap image format problem SOLVED
Posted: Wed Nov 04, 2020 3:53 pm
Hi All,
New to the group. After 10 years of scientific imaging I picked up pair of ZWO ASI series cameras to get back into DSO imaging- a 2600MC Pro and a 174MM. SharpCap stacking frequently discards as many frames as it stacks and I've been forced to attempt align and stack using ImagesPlus3. And while ImagesPlus will process individual SharpCap images (both already stacked and individual frames) the SharpCap fits formating is being rejected for the ImagesPlus3 align/stack process.
SharpCap stacked frames and individual raw frame are formated as ASIFitsView and the individual frames will open in ImagesPlus using File/Open. But when one tries to use ImagesPlus to download a set of raw images to stack within ImagesPlus using the Image Set Operations menu I'm getting the error message "All light frames and either selected frames must be the same size and their color type must match the selected Image Set Process Type. Display the list of light frames with different color type."
The image set process type is set correctly at OSC RGB. And all of the frames were generated sequentially without setup change.
This SharpCap forum seems to be the proper place to ask about the ASIFitsView formating. Anyone encountered this problem.
