Hi Robin,
Not sure if this is a bug or just slightly clunky.
If you do a live stack from the Folder Monitor Camera, then save the result by ending the live stack session,
Then re-enter Live stack and choose a new folder using the Browse button on the right, then Clear, then select 'All Fits files',
The folder does not update.
You have to clear again, and select the folder a second time.
Then it works.
I had to play around a bit to find a sequence that does work.
(You might ask why I eccentrically use SharpCap to stack images of stars to track parallax changes. I've tried two alternatives. AutoStakkert is not always able to stack such images and writes no useful information to the output FITS file. PixInsight stacks well, but is very slow. I have only recently developed a quick way to extract the data I need from such images, and have a backlog to work through.)
Using on a Windows 10 PC.
Regards,
Jane.

I've just thought to write a stack not by leaving Live Stack, but by hitting the Clear button. The same thing happens. You need to clear twice to pick up the new folder. J.
