  • There is always a trick. I suspect you changed the preview MODE.If you take a screenshot and you have your preview mode toolbar visible...you will be able to clearly see what is going on. Have you reviewed all of the QuickStart videos?This one might…
  • Hi Karen, For questions like this, it is helpful to make screenshots available to accompany your question. One thing I would recommend (and I do suggest in FastTrack somewhere) is to NOT rely on the caching in the beginning. It just become too confu…
  • Yes, you changed a setting (nothing to do with updates... rarely is).Did you check "Interactive Local Normalization" in the Lights Panel of WBPP?It appears you did. You should uncheck it to the this automatically.You can show your WBPP configuration…
  • Brook, OK. A couple of things. 1. I hope you recognize you have a complex request in what you are trying to do. That requires a little bit of logic both in what you expecting..and what WBPP is programmed to do. 2. This leads to some items that do no…
  • No no!... Not upset... but I literally did what you asked!Regarding the test...I would truly hope you do it. As you say, many of the recommendations are due to the fast evolution of software and methods. This means that often the suggestions are bas…
  • Wait...but I did what you asked!I made videos on SFS four years ago. Did you see them?They are on this page: https://www.adamblockstudios.com/categories/Processes (near the bottom) Specifically:https://www.adamblockstudios.com/articles/subframeselec…
  • Jack, Yes.You will see a "1x" on the video when you start playing it at the bottom right.Click there to select other speeds. You can choose chipmunk speed if you wish. -the Blockhead. 
  • Please include the screenshots of the WBPP panels (use the Diagnostics Button to generate them) of your configuration that shows this (all panels). This is just a configuration issue (that is my thought). -the Blockhead
  • HI Jose, It is hard to day without a detailed analysis.However, I think I can say something quite strong... Either:1. The Rosette nebula was "successful" but not actually optimal (or correct). This is an important lesson to learn in image processing…
  • Excellent.-the Blockhead
  • Modifying the headers will definitely work. I have a video that shows you how:https://www.adamblockstudios.com/articles/batch-fits-header-editor-script However, I *think* you can also load the files using the Custom button and adjust the Filter nam…
  • HI Michael, I think you need to keep watching the FastTrack videos.One of the videos near the end is on FastIntegration.Guess what it does? It aligns (and integrates) in batches.So do not do this manually. You are doing the right kind of thing... bu…
  • Wow... This looks exciting!-the Blockhead
  • Hi Horacio, Yes, you can purchase the download feature. Just go to your account and add a subscription for "Right Click Access" (download). There is a one-time fee of $20 to turn this on. If you figure out a good way to translate to spanish... PLEAS…
  • Excellent!That is however some odd video playback behavior. I do hope your typical experience is not this bumpy.-the Blockead
  • Yeah... "rebooting" in one form or another is always a good thing to try.-the Blockhead
  • The background brightness is an independent adjustment. Typically you set the black point to a value that is just to the left of the histogram "mountain" of the faintest recorded values in an image. There isn't really a well-defined value for this s…
  • Yes, WBPP will pick one reference frame automatically (unless you specify with manual). Typically this will be a luminance frame (if you are actually acquiring one) because the signal is brightest.  So you will have all files aligned. Regarding Line…
  • Hmm.. I have to say given the finnicky nature of MURE DeNoise... I haven't used it in a very long time. It is nice to know about... but with NXT- it is hard to justify that effort for the results you get. -the Blockhead 
  • Well..they are not identical...since one has greater rejection than the other. But given the same settings..you will get the same results. The greater rejection of one made the image look different than the other (because you have different histogra…
