Need help here - Using Batch PreProcessing to integrate RGB subs from Telescope Live session and it seems that no matter what file I choose as a reference file, I get the same error each time I attempt (4 tries) to integrate the images and the calibration files in Pixinsight:
*** Error: /Users/reggiejones/Pictures/Astro Imaging/TelescopeLive/NGC 6744/NGC6744 BatchPreprocess/registered/Red/2020-04-02T08-35-34_NGC_6744_Red_T-25_450s_cal_a_c_r.xisf: Zero or insignificant signal detected (empty image?)
<* failed *>
Checked the calibration files and the Master Dark file looked different from what I was expecting - contained a swirling light pattern. I talked to Telescope Live about this and they responded that the swirling pattern in the Master Dark is called "Residual Bulk Current", or RBI (new learning for me). The camera used on this particular telescope is apparently very susceptible to RBI. Not sure if this is related to the problem but I thought I'd mention this.
All ideas welcome
