Adam Y Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Seeing was pretty good for around here last night, and FireCapture kept crashing on me every time I switched the profile to try to grab Saturn. So I fired up SharpCap without having ever looked at it, and grabbed this quick one of Jupiter and 3 moons. About 90 seconds worth, for 5048 frames. Kept the best 75%. No darks or flats; by this time my back was hurting from the cold! PIPP to stablise the video and discard bad frames > Autostakkert 3 > Registax > GIMP. Enjoy! Think i might start investigating SharpCap - I really love many of the features of FireCapture, but I sure hate how it crashes with very little provocation!! Enjoy! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryMcK Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Great results Adam. Sharpcap is certainly good software. I use it for solar captures. Not sure you actually need flats nor darks for planetary as essentially you are shooting video. Have a look at the help files in Sharpcap to see suggestions as to whether they are necessary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
