I still do not think you understand. The videos you watched are still valid. The methods are different as I explain in the new video about the new method. So it is a good idea to understand both. Creating an instance of CC (template) does not use d…

I think we need to be on the same page. Your screenshot is from an older version of PixInsight. This is not the newest version with the new option for CC in WBPP. Can you please check and make certain you are using the latest version of PixInsight? …

One more thing... In WBPP the word "AUTOMATIC" is NOT the same as the "manual" CC with AUTODetect method."AUTOMATIC" in WBPP is using a dark frame. That is the new method. If this isn't the confusion..I am very confused. -the Blockhead

I do not understand. The new method is NOT the same as the old CC process. You do not need to set a dark frame in WBPP. It will automatically use from the master dark that is created from the darks you load into WBPP. I do not understand what you me…

Hi Niki, The two methods are different. The old method finds hot pixels in LIGHT frames based on how bright the pixels are compared to their neighbors. The new method (in WBPP) finds hot pixels by examining dark frames. If you use the new method it…

You looked at ALL of the calibrated frames? The answer is there... It is saying there is oversubtraction. If LN later tries to use these frames as a reference... there will be issues. There are no defaults in WBPP. You can post your panels using the…

You did not indicate an important piece of information. Did you upsample as part of the drizzle?Best practice is to drizzle 1x1 unless you meet some very high bars for up-drizzling. If you did upsample... this is why you are not able to plate solve …

Wait! You do not want to apply your keyword distinction to the DARKS. This is a misconfiguration and is certainly a part of the problem. WBPP already matches on Filter Names as long as they are in the header. If you do no have the filter names in t…

There isn't a space after SH2- ???It looks like there is. -the Blockhead

Again you need to look the calibrated data. This is being measured- and it means there is oversubtraction which means the dark frames you are using are inappropriate, bad, or misconfigured. Your masterLight is probably NOT fine. That is the point. …

Ooooh!That is telling. This would explain the LN issue as well. I assumed you looked at your data. It appears your calibrated data is bad. Which means something about calibration is suspect.Troubleshooting 101...-the Blockhead

I don't know. Nothing has changed in WBPP. 1. Your light frame file names have spaces in them. It think this is very bad practice. 2. You need to make certain you have long path names enabled.3. You always need to do things from scratch when trouble…

Zak, I fear those screenshots do not help. What are the values in the images before you apply linear fit? 1. Linear Fit of data is not a requirement. You do not have to do it at all...and you can choose whatever scaling factor you want. 2. NB Normal…

For purposes of flats I suspect parfocal filters isn't the most important thing. However today you should be setting offsets for your filters that will be remembered by software that is controlling your camera.For the same reason, yes the last focus…

It will be neither ignored or overwritten. Actually WBPP never overwrites files. If you run the new set of files... It will only calibrate the new files and not the old ones. You want this. You would change the registration reference to be the file…

I actually think @Mike Cranfield's comments might be useful here...Good work on laying all of this out.-the Blockhead

You images are too bright. However, Mike is coming out with a new version that will help.Just remember, the images are being screened together. The linear fit images should still have *small* values... but it sounds like they do not. I assume you ar…

The BtbN is the easiest one.I put the link to download a ZIP containing the files below my video. https://www.adamblockstudios.com/articles/blink-process-animations -the Blockhead

I do think there would be a difference in choices you make in terms of how to map the colors or blend images. Is this is a difference in workflow? I am not convinced. -the Blockhead
-
Well... 250-300 is a very small ... extremely tiny population of pixels. Generally hot pixels number in the thousands. That being said, there is nothing wrong with this. You should run CC (the new version) with the default value of 10 and look in t…
