Hmm DSS still isnt reading any of the edited file. Same error "the checked pictures are not compatibles (width,height,number of colors,number of channels, only one master dark,offset, and flat."admin wrote:Ok. Looks like DSS might encode some special fields to indicate a file is a Master Flat.
However, maybe you can "stack" the modified master flat as if it is a stack of just one flat frame, so that DSS makes a master flat out of that?

I'm out of ideas then I'm afraid. Regardless, it's probably a good idea to figure out why the master flat was noisy to begin with and address it the "proper" way.celeron787 wrote:Hmm DSS still isnt reading any of the edited file.

Re: Improving this Rho Ophiuchi
No worries. I should thank you for all your help, the amount of support provided by you here is tremendous! I might try using a different flat panel, also will start looking into manual dithering next (no software support for my camera)admin wrote:I'm out of ideas then I'm afraid.
