Help, Registax wont see my AVI files

[Ainsley]

Last night I took three AVI files of the moon, ready to have a go with Registax today. However, when I try to "select" them with Registax, it fails to see any files in the folder at all.

I made them using the Orion StarShoot Solar System Colour Imager IV, which produces an AVI file on my laptop.

I can view that file fine using Windows Media Player, so why cant Registax see it ?

Have you checked the filter option to see if AVI files are selected. Registax may be set to see tiff files only.

I assume you mean the drop down box in the "Open File" dialog box - Ive set it to all and every type.

Ive done a bit of Googleing and found out that I can use a program called Virtual Dub to save the files as AVI files, so I did that and it seemed to work. Quite why they were not AVI files to start with I dont know, but they are now and seem to load into Registax.

Now I need to spend my lunch hour playing about with it.

Thanks
