Hi,

I have an OSC camera. I debayer my images using VNG and GBRG configuration.

However when I try to full preprocess my images with the 'Batch preprocessing' script, the script doen't honor the bayer mask settings. It does honor the VNG setting but not the GBRG configuration.

If you need more info or a set of images please let me know and I'll make them available.

Cheers,

Jose

Hi Jose,

By "doesn't honor" what do you mean exactly:

- That the Bayer matrix that you select is not remembered by the script.

- That the deBayering process is not working correctly.

In the first case, it is very strange since the script saves the Bayer pattern as part of its settings, which are re-loaded each time the script is executed. I have checked this and it works correctly.

In the second case, a possible cause could be inconsistent FITS orientation settings. If you have the default FITS orientation (bottom->top) in FITS preferences, then when you use the script by default (top->bottom) the mirrored distribution of pixels will require a different Bayer pattern. Either change your default FITS preferences to set the top->bottom orientation (recommended), or change the orientation in the BatchPreprocessing script.

Hi Juan,

First case, it doesn't use the selected mask. It uses the selected method tho, but it doesn't use the selected mask.

I have stop until calibration and then manually (batch debayer script) debayer the images, align and integrate.

Let me create mini set of images that you can use for test.

Cheers,

Jose
