Hi,
Problem in ImageRegistration. Blink  the images to see that image #099 is not registered to other two.

Best regards,
Nikolay.

Thanks Nikolay

I removed #99 from the process and it worked great.

Hello Nikolay

I have some trouble with the module.
When I save a project containing the module (process icon) I can not load the project anymore because it crashes PI.
I tried wit a project containing only this module as process icon.
Can you please verify this?

Bug fixed.

v.1.0.2.0001 BugFix: process icon problem(impossible to load process icon) - fixed.

That worked ok, even with my previously saved project.
Thanks

Hi All, I am a newbie to PixInsight but I have collected about 20-odd images of comet P168 last night and am trying to process the images using the Comet Alignment Module. I note that it uses the Date-Obs field which is in the original image file, but as I have single shot colour QHY-8 when I debayer the images, the Date-Obs field plus all the other FITS camera data appears to be lost in the debayered header files. Have I missed something? Any suggestions? Cheers Grant

There are problem in BatchDeBayer Script, which don't preserve FitsKeywords.

Use Debayer Module + Image Container. That combination doing same, but preserve FitsKeywords.

It seems I am a little slow. I have tried the CometAlignment tool and it seems to see the comet fine (I can select the comet in the first and last image, I can see the green circle move as I open other images as it should). I then select an output directory and click apply. It makes a series of fit files. If I open those fit files in BatchPreprocessing it does not seem to do any different than the raw files before using CometAlignment.

I know I am doing something stupid, can you point me in the right direction?

Please check ( Menu>File>FitsHeader ) are really images was processed by Comet Alignment module. Open one image and check history in FitsHeader. Look my print screen for example.

Hello Nicolay,

thanks for the great Comet Script. It works well! 

What do you think is the best integration algoritm after registration! I used Winzorized Sigma but I;m looking forward to your answer!

Sorry, I have no idea.

I think there are some hints in the documentation. I cannot check this right now... No access to PI here...
