Input on my M31 using PI

[sandconp]

I was hoping to get some input on my M31 that I processed with PI.  I have created links below for the already stacked fits file and the output (JPG) format from PI.

what were your pixel rejection settings like? seems like you have some hot pixels going on there.

Where is this set at?  I am a beginner with PI.

in ImageIntegration, under the tabs Pixel Rejection (1) and Pixel Rejection (2).

with 25 frames you can use windsorized sigma, try setting the sigma high and sigma low to something like 3.1 to start with. check the new integrated result to see if the colored specks are gone.

When I tried to execute ImageIntegration, I get an error Cannot Execute instance in the global context.  Reason: The instance of ImageIntegration defines less than three source images.

Also what step would this be in?  I tried executing this process early on after my Dynamic Crop.

your original run was with BPP?

assuming yes, you need to find the _c_d_r files that BPP created and load them into ImageIntegration in order to run it standalone.

the flow is calibrate (ImageCalibration) -> register (StarAlignment) -> integrate (ImageIntegration)
