Nice shot Milton. Glad to see you have 18GB free on your laptop. My drive seems to fill up and it is a constant chore to house clean.
Can't wait to hear about the 2.0 release. Especially if it can help me get picts like your Jupiter shot last night.

Hi folks;
Last night I had clear skies and reasonable turbulence - the first
time in about 2 or 3 weeks, so I was testing out Astro IIDC 2.0 with
the Point grey Research color camera on Luna and Jupiter. I did all
the capture in 16 bit mode at 30 fps, so it's capturing 17.6 megabytes
per second and I grabbed a little over 18 gigabytes of video on the
laptop.
I batch stacked and aligned the movies in Astro IIDC last night (while
I slept) and got a few good images - one of which I posted in the
Plnetary folder as Jupiter_050419_MJA.jpg which has ganymedes shadow
and the GSR. None of them are up to Alan's saturn shot standard - but
for a 5.1" MAK scope sitting on a 10th story balcony and the close
proximity of the JetsStream (we had a double loop of it last night), I
think it came out pretty good.
I'll be posting details on what's new in Version 2.0 of Astro IIDC and
hopefully seeding the beta out in the next few weeks.
TTYL..
