What? The given key ...

[sharpcapt]

Hi
Was playing with sequencer and upon testing I got this:

the given key was not present in the dictionary

I am not a programmer, although I played a little bit with C++ a long time ago and sometime ago with a bit of Python and if I am not wrong this is something that comes up when one is programming and if the command or key you gave is not listed in the commands library or similar.

But I have not added any key, just used the basic sequencer.

I mean, when I test it, it tried to guide, but guiding is not enabled!

Just curious.
Thanks

Here is the basic sequence:

13:44:20 Starting :
13:44:20 Starting : Save the camera settings and restore them when this block finishes
13:44:20 Starting : Wait for 1 seconds
13:44:21 Completed : Wait for 1 seconds
13:44:21 Starting : Put Camera in Still Mode
13:44:21 Completed : Put Camera in Still Mode
13:44:21 Starting : Set Colour Space to MONO14
13:44:21 Completed : Set Colour Space to MONO14
13:44:21 Starting : Set Output Format to PNG files (*.png)
13:44:21 Completed : Set Output Format to PNG files (*.png)
13:44:21 Starting : Set offset to 323
13:44:21 Completed : Set offset to 323
13:44:21 Starting : ### Comment : Capture 3 Light frames
13:44:21 Completed : ### Comment : Capture 3 Light frames
13:44:21 Starting : Save the camera settings and restore them when this block finishes
13:44:21 Starting : Set Exposure to 0.0024s
13:44:21 Completed : Set Exposure to 0.0024s
13:44:21 Starting : Set frame type to 'Light'
13:44:21 Completed : Set frame type to 'Light'
13:44:21 Starting : Show a prompt 'About to capture Light frames' and wait for OK to be pressed. Camera controls enabled : True
13:44:25 Completed : Show a prompt 'About to capture Light frames' and wait for OK to be pressed. Camera controls enabled : True
13:44:25 Starting : Capture 1 still frames (guiding required : False)
13:44:25 Error : 'Camera failed to capture frame' while running step Capture 1 still frames (guiding required : False)
13:44:25 End : Sequence halted due to error.
13:44:25 Finished

Hi,

it sounds like a bug - could you share the sequence you were trying to run (and details of the camera you were using) and I will see if I can reproduce the error.

You can save the sequence as an .ssp (deep sky planner) or .scs (advanced editor) file and then include the content of that file, which is just text, here.

thanks,

Robin
