Very informative video Walt. Thanks for that. The only problem with multiple night imaging is it can be frustrating if you live somewhere like me where you can go for a month without a single clear sky. But that being said, I have realised that from my site it is the only way to get a decent image of faint nebulae. At the moment I have about six or seven images taken over the last year that require more data.
I'm a simple man. I see Godzilla in the background and I have to comment😂 Great video! That cleared up pixinsight for me. I just switched over from Siril, so this is going to help a bunch!
I had frames from before i had the asiair mini. in raw, from my Sony. do you think i could convert one in siril to a .fit and put it on the asiair ? (just tried with a raw saved in .fit 32 bits and didnt work) maybe i need to try 16 bits ? any idea ? tyvm
Thanks. informative video, just started my first 2 panel project, 1 night so far. A quick question if i may? using N.I.N.A when loading your 1 yr old image for reference ruclips.net/video/Y2LKHTdbIrk/видео.html i notice its a .fits file. would that be a previous stacked image? how does the .fits file get the coordinates written to it? slightly confused TIA. Phil
@@flipper8652 Hi Phil! If you use NINA or the ASIAIR they automatically save your coordinates, camera sensor size, and all sorts of information into every single light frame as a .fit file. If you tried using an old RAW file it might be more complicated because RAW files don't contain the metadata. If you are using NINA then just make sure from now on you are saving .fit files and they should always have the data stored in them.
@@keithhanssen7413 Unless you live in a very clean sterile environment, you want to use different flats for each night. I live in an area that's very windy and dusty so I have to take flats every single night. If you are shooting with a non cooled camera you want to use different darks for each night as well. Using the different tabs keeps the calibration frames used on each night in line with the lights. The calibration frames are going to change from night to night.
@keithhanssen7413 Thanks! It's when you get a lot of dust on your telescope/lens when you really start to notice the difference. That's why I take different flats every night no matter what. I live out in the country where it's pretty damn dusty 😂
This was very informative. I learned a lot. Thanks.
Love the humor that you put into all your videos. CS
Nice one Walt. Very informative. Always take away something (often many things) from your vids. Cheers for that! Clears skies mate
Hello from the island of Cyprus! Great video as always!
Hello from Spain, very interesting video and exactly at the moment I was looking for this information!
And uh.... stick with the sound horse😂😂😂

Happy new Year, Walt. I'll certainly be giving Sirilic a try. I've never tried a multi night project.
Great! Didn't know about 'Directory' in PI - thank you!

Nice horsey!
Time for a one more good lesson with wolt 🔭

Why not just add both sessions into a single tab in DSS?

@ I’ll try separating the two nights’ worth of exposures and dark frames and see if can see a noticeable difference. Thanks. Love your style!
