Hello Robin
With Live Stacking, in the <Guiding> tab, it is impossible to check "Monitor Guiding Application"

Hi Louis,

if you are using a real guiding application (PHD2 or an MGEN guider) then you can either use the recentering option or guiding, but not both. To turn on the guiding/dithering option, turn of recentering.

The theory is that when you have PHD2 or MGEN guiding active, dithering is not necessary, since the image will not drift due to the guiding, therefore having both recentering and guiding active would be incorrect.

cheers,

Robin
