None of the articles are protected or non-public. (only videos)So all content is available to be searched by google (even now).I think the current search might be better though. The quality of the results are really determined by the language I use.…

Mark, Have you watched all of my videos on this subject?https://www.adamblockstudios.com/categories/PixelMath If you have, please let me know what in addition you would like to see. -the Blockhead

Hi Roger, 1. The search covers all pages that are "articles." Any text on an article page will come up in a search. That category pages I do not believe are searched (and these do have titles). Videos are on article pages. I am trying to do my best …

Ok... got a response. I agree with the suggestion. You can use the GAIN and OFFSET Keyword to make certain files are matched properly. You will then see the values for GAIN and OFFSET directly. Nothing has to change in WBPP. The developer will be pu…

Concerning GAIN and OFFSET ...I agree that it is a nice thing to make visible and match on. I am not certain what the complexity is though... I have asked this question to the developers... I will write back when I have a response. Concerning the in…

Yes, I suspect growth will help. However you can experiment with going one LESS layer... with a larger growth as well. Or.. you can go with more MORE layer... and maybe less growth. The layers button excludes those layer scales (like MLT). When you…

You have the correct idea. The version I made literally slipped on over the corrector lens and was held on by friction. It did jut out very slightly into the incoming light. But it is very small. (In my system there is a bit of space between the pri…

Michael, This doesn't make sense. The "-1" parameter was valid in an earlier version of Pixinsight. Now the parameter has been changed to be 0 to 1. I do not know how you are able to do this. You are basically telling me you are using a new version …

Comments... I've already removed all the reflections I can think of inside the OTAProbably not... closed every possible path a light can enter (using a flashlight, I cannot see leaks when the OTA is closed)I use a Tak 180 Epsilon. I think you would …

I didn't show using WBPP in my video because the data was monochrome. I just did the integration my self.I For OSC... you should load the NSFs into your FLATs panel. Use the FLATs button (or the Custom button) to do this. You would match this flats…

Can you tell me more about the NSFs? Did you load them into the Flats panel?Did you calibrate them with the appropriate dark frame?Did you tell WBPP they are CFA?If yes, what leads you to believe "it doesn't seem quite right." Screenshots and/or mor…

Actually.. this is first time a GAIA hole has been found.It is pretty rare. Previous catalogues have many more holes...-the BLockhead

This was answered on the forum. You are not doing anything wrong.There are too few GAIA stars with spectra in the field. (only 5). You will have to resort to PCC. https://pixinsight.com/forum/index.php?threads/spcc-failure.22572/ To date this is th…

Thank you for the data.In 5 seconds I already found at least one issue.It is what I suspected in my initial answer to you. I wrote:"In the meantime... the first step is to blink your raw calibration frames. Then yo blink your light frames. You compa…

Craig, There are a couple of issues. 1. You need to stretch your window more to see everything. 2. Use the Diagnostics Button to capture all of the WBPP screens with one push. All of the panels will help.3. Take screenshots of your folder structure…

Thanks.I see the file extension is *.z01I am not familiar with this extension. What program did you use to compress the files?I do have 7Zip... so it might figure it out.-the Blockhead

I know it is huge..but yeah, I guess I need a REAL world example of all of the files. Here is a way to minimize the number of files. I would want 5 Flats (per filter)I would want 15 Darks at each exposure time. Choose every other dark.I would want …
