Hi John,

I had noticed that in some instances (occured twice for me but couldnt get it to replicate), the focuser would continue to gather more points but the graph never appeared. I had to shutdown and reload Kstars. Dont know if anyone else encountered this

Hi Simon, I tried it out and found it quite challenging to get the balance of gain & exposure correct (using ASICap) to show the details. Its either too dim or too bright :-(
I need to find more time to do this more leisurely.

I will try it out this evening. If your application can support ASCOM, INDI then that should be able to support most of the popular cameras.

Good point. So I think the most practical solution is use the wide-eye lens thats bundled with cameras such as the ZWO ASI224 or ASI120

Hi Akarsh,

This is what it looks like on the Mac (Macbook Pro M1 running Sonoma 14.4.1). It works perfectly on my Linux machine.

I plan to try out with my humble phone camera and share the screen on the laptop where I can run CC :-) Fingers crossed for this weekend

Has there been any progress on resolving this? I still get these on my RPi running the latest version of Stellarmate OS v1.8.2 (I think). And there are times when the response is very slow even though both the RPi and my laptop are connected to the same home Wifi.

Good point. I now need to find a suitable camera to try out the software. The ASI cameras I have dont seem to be able to focus even with the wide angle lens supplied.

Thanks for these Simon. A suggestion - instead of removing the primary mirror, would it not be easier to just hide it by putting a paper/card into the OTA?

I checked on Linux and the Views are available. So something is amiss with the MacOS build

Hi,

I downloaded this version just now on my MacOS M1 and the feature for Custom views is not showing in the menus. Do I need to do anything special to activate this?

I also have noticed that there are differences between App & OS. An example is how you can set presets in Capture module. Also the Mount has options to park & set a home position.
