Live Stacking problem after update

[John Edwards]

My live stacking feature is not working. Only the first frame is displayed. This problem has only occurred since I updated the software.

Hi,

We will need a bit more information to work out what's going on.

First, please confirm which version you've updated to and, if you can remember, the version that you updated from.

Secondly, it always helps to know what cameras in use and what settings (particularly exposure) you are using. Is the frame count at the bottom left of the screen going up steadily as it should? If that is stark it may be that the problem is that frames are not being fetched from the camera properly for some reason.

Thirdly, are you seeing any warning bars appearing just under the menu and toolbars at the top of the screen? If there is a problem with live stacking such as not enough stars being detected to align then a warning will appear there after a few frames have failed to stack.

Next, in the live stacking area there is a "log' tab. Select that tab and see if any messages that are being added to the log might hold clues as to why live stacking is misbehaving.

If none of that helps you track down the cause then please post some screenshots showing the live stacking area, the camera controls and so on as often there are details visible in a screenshot that people forget to mention or we might forget to ask about.

Hope that helps, Robin

PS.I moved your post into its own thread rather than leaving it in the thread about Orion cameras

The problem occurs at the end of an imaging session. I normally get the final image but version 3.1 doesn't work. I downloaded version 3.2 and it worked ok last night. Thank you. Using RASA 8 with ZWO183MC Pro.
