You might be interested in the M51 example I have in the Workflows section. The data I was given had out of focus images in Red. would be willing to put good money ZERO other people on YouTube or anywhere else demonstrate this. :)Hopefully that is …
So I looked at your data..and I can't explain why the pattern isn't RGGB... but it definitely is not.The fact that Auto found the correct pattern I assume is due to the LibRaw thing. Discovering it on your own was good work! You can also look at the…
Something doesn't make sense.It is trying to figure out a CFA pattern on the MasterDark frame.Something is out of whack. Can you make the three Masters and 5 lights available?

Advice:
Later tonight if I feel up to it, I am going to make another Grouping video that addresses your question.You can avoid file naming schemes by using FOLDER naming schemes. So if you are taking a picture of an object (OrionNeb)... just name yo…
Hi Alan,
Very likely the data is noisy or not calibrated correctly. 39,000 "stars" sounds like an awful lot of them!II am assuming this is the weighting portion of WBPP?(I am not certain... )You should definitely look at NGC 346 v2 B -25 300 BIN1 PA…
I would recommend consider using HDRMT. I have quite a few videos on this tool and topic. e.g. https://adamblockstudios.com/articles/HDRMT_03

Hi Lynn,
Hmm..I made this a while ago..and I can't say what I did! I thought I made everything available that I said I would....
However, let me just add that with the new version of WBPP now available-I think that you should just watch the Manual …
I agree. If you still see these in your data after calibration it could "bite" you later. The problem isn't that they would be rejected during Image Integration (they probably would)...but the prior step of StarAlignment is the issue. If the StarAli…
Hi Roger,
You are right! I did not remember that detail.When I receive data from other people... it is remarkable what I get... can't keep track.However, this is exactly what people want me to do. "Adam, don't use your data... use data just like min…
The first screen you see is the member's screen. This is where you will always go when you log in. It is here that I post announcements and where you can see I add new videos at the end of that list.
When you first log in, you should use the menu o…
So, using a bias to calibrate a flat is a perfectly fine thing to do. It DEPENDS on the sensor. Unfortunately not all sensors behave well...and require Flat Darks. I think in the future CMOS sensors will improve and this will not be necessary. Bias …
Roger,
I actually don't have a good description of a Project (it wasn't fully formed when I started the tutorials).But I do think I can address a part of your question. A project encompasses all VIEWS, Masks, processes... everything that is open or …
In a way, you can look at the data numerically. I am not saying this would be easy...but within your images thee will always be things you expect to be neutral in color. The blank sky (no nebula) is neutral. This means you expect to see equal value…
A Master Flat is calibrated (unlike a master dark... don't even think about this too long!).So you are correct the Flat Dark you have on hand will not be utilized...though it will not do any harm sitting there.
No..I do not think you need this chec…
I would still recommend doing it...lots of good info to know/learn. I am still considering add a short section that illustrates all of the small differences for LRGB type workflows. Obviously you don't check CFA or debayer anything. If the point is …
Excellent!I really am trying to make this thing "bullet proof."If you have suggestions how to further armor up against attack...let me know! :)Thanks,-the Blockhead
HI Michael,
The FastTrack table has two columns. The one on the left is the "training"...the column of links on right are the discussion sections. (I was hoping the arrow between them would direct you... ).
True, rejecting the frames would be OK...b…
