I wanted to recalculate the weights from subframeselector for a selection of subframes taken over several nights.
Therefore I ran the script on an existing directory with weighted subframes with postfix's _a.
The "measure" routine went fine.
For the "output subframe" routine, I blanked the postfix option, checked the "overwrite existing files" and ran the script on the same input- and output directory.
The result was a bunch of errors witch corrupted all my subframes - now not recognizable as valid FITS files:
*** Error: PCL Legacy FITS Format Support: Unable to open FITS file: /Users/Jens/Pictures/Astrofoto_Imac/ASI1600MM/NGC281/Approved/NGC281_Blue_30sec_2018-11-25_0001_a.fit
