Hi Robin,

that seems logical, but I thought that the frame that is shown as the stacked frame (filtered and only the best x % - as selected), will end up in the
video. If that is not true, how can one achieve the correct filter settings?

I will try to experiment again.

Thanks a lot!

cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael,

it depends on which video you mean...

If you start a timelapse from within planetary live stacking, then the stacked/sharpened/processed frame is taken periodically and added to the timelapse video.

If you press 'Start Capture' while planetary live stacking then the raw frames from the camera will be saved to SER, just as they would if you capture without planetary live stacking active - the idea of this is that you can use planetary live stacking as a 'nice to look at' tool while you are imaging but still capture normal videos to postprocess later using more traditional methods.

cheers,

Robin

Hi Robin,

I only did a timelapse video (with or without brightness stabilization) and did not press "start capture" (but sometimes a "save to png")

cheers,
Michael
