bright stripe in the image

[wunni]

Hello!

After problems with a beta test of SC 3.3, I went back to SC 3.2. But one problem remained: There is a bright stripe in all images.

(The midtones in the image are strongly pulled up to better see the effect.)

To solve the problem I have..
- upgraded the computer to Win 10 Pro 64 (inplace upgrade)
- replaced the old QHY driver to the last for QHY174 (202003 uninstalled, 20200508 installed)
- and SharpCap 3.2.6433 newly installed (SC uninstalled, then installed again.) The Pro-Key was recognized automatically.
Profiles and other directories containing SC data were not deleted manually.
The problem remained.

I can't possibly have damaged the camera during the beta test; it must be some kind of a software problem.
Does anyone have any ideas what else I could do?

By the way: No, I don't have a disc image with which I could go back to the state before the beta test.

Best regards,
Niko

Hi,

I've observed similar things, see screenshot (because it was an alpha-testing hidden thread).

Hi,

if it goes away when you turn the GPS to off, then I would presume that it's just data at the beginning of the frame being overwritten by the FPGA when it copies the GPS information into the frame data. I see something similar although the bar isn't as wide. I've also applied a strong stretch to make it visible, otherwise it's only just above the black level.
