I apologize in advance if I am not understanding the issue here correctly but if the tracking is such that the planet moves significantly with respect to the ROI, you will get a border area where parts of the image are missing (red for me with the stabilization feature off). I always check for that within Autostakkert by using the frames slider to quickly parse through the frames. If the issue exists, I just adjust the width and height of the image within Autostakkert image display until those border areas are eliminated. No need to go to a different program for cropping.

I did change the ASI3 ROI/Crop but it still has the issue. It has nothing to do with borders - seems there is something else in the SER frames when planetary alignment option is enabled that ASI3 doesn't handle well.. When I turn it off it works OK and the planet image is not blurred or slightly shifted in ASI3 processing.
