Ability to capture more than 5,000 frames when using seeing monitor?

When doing planetary and h-alpha solar imaging, I really love using the filter capture option in the seeing monitor. However, I'm unable to see a way to capture more than 5,000 frames in a single video capture. This gets annoying, especially when the goal is to get a total of 20,000-40,000 total frames, as you are forced to deal with 4-8 separate video captures vs a single video.

Is there a way to capture more than just 5,000 frames (the largest number available in the dropdown menu) when using the seeing monitor tool?

Or even better, is there a way to stipulate a maximum time limit of capture when using the filter option, vs stipulating a number of frames? This would be really handy for planets and solar, where exceeding certain time frames causes blurring of fine details, and you simply capture as many frames as possible in that given time frame.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

currently 5000 frames is the limit, but I will add 10000,20000,40000 as that is really very simple to change (simpler than adding a time option in this case).

cheers,

Robin
