32-bit FITS and dark ring in stars
I'm not sure if this is a bug report or operator error. I've not had many EAA opportunities lately and the last time out I only did one short live stack of IC 342. I saved a PNG (saved with adjustments) and a 32-bit FITS stack. The PNG is fine but the 32-bit FITS looks like this.
The txt file for the stack is attached. I've never seen this before and was not sure if I did something wrong or if it was some type of bug.

Re: 32-bit FITS and dark ring in stars
Hi,
looks like the brightness value for the pixels in the stars is overflowing the maximum, going back round to zero and then rising again in the middle of the star.
I just tested and I'm getting some very weird results from 32 bit FITS saves, so something may have gone wrong - I will investigate.
cheers,
Robin
