Hi Terry,
I don`t know what exactly you mean by workflow. I`m referring to the instructions provided in Help for Astro IIDC in the Menu Bar. I`m hoping to try more precisely collimating my scope using the facility in "Metaguide" on my recently obtained PC. I`ve dismantled the corrector (& secondary) to clean a water mark. If possible I`d like to try shooting Jupiter at around 3.30 am here & maybe the impact site half an hour later.
Mark.

I am always curious to know what workflow others use. If someone has that written out I would be curious to read it.
I will try to process tomorrow, after that I am on the road to Georgia to participate in my first graze occultation with Hal Povenmier.

Hi Terry & Milton,
I`ve had a look too at Milton`s image made from Terry`s movie. As
Milton says any fine detail is removed by the translation to MPEG4 I
assume in the process of obtaining the movie from Terry`s link. Terry,
I stopped the download of the more detailed movie on your website. It
seemed to have virtually have stopped in it`s tracks anyway probably
because our satellite broadband is shaped for the month ( after we use
our 3GB of downloads it reverts to 64 bits speed I think!) & partly
because there were lots of other family movies there to download as
well!? If Milton is right & it was some kind of turbulence (a
jetstream perhaps) at least that should be a bit reassuring for you
Terry-that you don`t have external problems with the site! I`m looking
forward to seeing what you can do with the original movie Terry. If
you have any questions about settings in the Stacking options window
that the Manual can`t solve I`m sure Milton will be there to help. I
know he took me virtually step by step through the right settings for
processing my moon movies!
Mark.
