Atik and Live Stacking

#1

Post by RichieD »

Hi All,
Sorry if this is a silly question but is there any way to invoke dark frame (and flat field) subtraction (which I've not been able to do) during Live Stacking (which I can do). The camera is my Atik 460EX, so not CMOS.
Many thanks
Richie

Hi Richie,

yes, you can do all of that in SharpCap - first capture dark and flat frames using the tools in the capture menu, then make sure they are selected in the appropriate controls in the 'Preprocessing' group, then start live stacking.

See https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#Captur ... k%20Frames and https://docs.sharpcap.co.uk/4.0/#Captur ... t%20Frames for more info.

cheers,

Robin
