Ray, Yes, I know... I read the document. It does not say in there that star color is derived, approximated or anything else regarding narrowband images. That is why I asked you to highlight the particular language you felt said otherwise. All the do…

Hi John, If you do not see the DR3 and DR3/SP in your drop down...it is 100% the case that your installation is not the latest and/or the updates are not complete. I just had another member with this issue- and they followed the directions above an…

Hmm... with regards to GIAI..I believe you need to download them. You do not need to download all of them to save some space. However,...it might be time for you to get an external drive for more space. -teh Blockhead

Kevin!Please watch my SPCC videos.... Specifically this one:https://www.adamblockstudios.com/articles/spcc-the-process (But you must watch the first part also:https://www.adamblockstudios.com/articles/pcc-and-spcc-astrometry ) These vide…

PixInsight is not designed to be used with multiple monitors. Typically there are some graphic hiccups (depends on the hardware/drivers). As long as you understand you may experience some display issues- it is not big deal- but I would not try to fi…

Kevin, GAIA (and SPCC) does not know the integrated color of a star per say- though the information is contained in the spectrum. Parts of the spectrum are analyzed (values are added) as described below. When you compare a BAND of wavelengths you ca…

Can you please point at the language you are referring to? -the Blockhead

If you did not run DBE or anything like that.. and you see this in your master light (simply integrated image)... then the issue is likely to do with your calibration files. If you have a light leak in your darks this would cause it. If you have a m…

Hi Guys, Sorry, I guess I do not understand the question.If a song (music) is played on a piano.. you need to have all keys/notes available to play the entire song. If you "filter out" most of the keys and only leave three of them available, you can…

Hi James, Yeah binning and WBPP have a special rule. Basically WBPP honors binning as a feature of an image in its logic. This means WBPp will not naturally integrate images in the same filter group with different binning. There are some technical r…

Thank you for the answer!!The ".X" does not affect the visibility of the drive letters on Windows and drives are not files... but as long as it works!-the Blockhead

Hi James, Again, I am not certain I understand. If this is straight from WBPP- then this is a fine looking image that has not yet been color calibrated. There is a mostly red bias which is OK. What does an unlinked STF look like for this data? Can y…

Test for light leak by taking calibration data in total darkness. Take light frame data away from lights without moon in the sky. -the Blockhead

Excellent.That difference in scale was probably just enough to tip the balance...-the Blockhead

You know what ..I hate Mac. Sorry... this is stupid.Could a Mac person please respond with the answer?I do not have a Mac and I hate being surprised by this...I assumed that the experience would be the same for everyone within PI...this was the whol…

Hi James, This is a processed image (with StarRemoval)... so we should not be looking at this to figure out the debayer question. In addition, this image is created by the integration of star aligned images (I assume) from which you used SXT to remo…

HI Dingo, You are correct concerning the diffraction spike can extend for many degrees depending on how deep your data is. This is normal. It is also a fact that this diffraction is every bit as "real" as the rest of the photons that formed the imag…

Did you do an unlinked AutoSTF?Can you post a screenshot or two?Sometimes it is difficult in instances where there isn't much information in the image.(compared to like say M42) -the Blockhead

Typically the issue here is the plate scale (focal length). You can make the image available and the coordinates you believe are correct as well as the focal length, pixel size, plate scale... etc. I am happy to try... it looks like there should not…

Hmmm... well the first error could be a number of things.The second one concerns me though. Even though you may have the "universe" of catalogs... that message implies that one or more might still be corrupt (errors during download). I wonder if P…
