Hello Milton and all,

at last I was able to get a complete set of Visible +IR+ RGB recording of Saturno using the software ROI.

Wow, excellent. I love it.

Since my mount has a nice polar alignment i set a small  512 x 360 window.

The whole folder containing a 15fps IR movie  + a visible light movie @ 30fps-2500 frames  + R+G+B (700 frames each) take almost the same disk space that the single 2.500 frames film at full frame.

It is nice to see numbers like 540 Mbytes instead of 2,3 Gigabytes for a single movie with lot of black areas into it.


In addition i noticed that on a pretty old G4 mac the smaller area allows to the disk to save always at precise 30fps while sometime i noticed that very noisy full frame @30fps movie  could be recorded with some missing frame and with weird frame-rates like 27,8 , 28,3 or similar.


Glad to hear it works well for you.



Very good. Many thanks to Milton for that.

A question about batch aligning and stacking:

is it possible to prepare a batch for processing/stacking movies with multiple manually selected points and the creation of blended images?


You can do batch processing, but you still have to pick the alignment points.
