oldpink Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 you need to use software to open and process the videoASI2 or registax are the normal choices as well as PIPP for pre processing the video Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornelius Varley Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Sharpcap is an image capture program (hence the cap in its name). Once you have captured the video file you then process it in a stacking program such as Registax or Astrostakkert. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrosurf Posted August 22, 2014 Share Posted August 22, 2014 As had been said. I use Sharpcap to capture my vids from a webcam. They're saved as .avi files. If it's a planet, I open the file in Castrator to crop out the excess black sky. PIPP does the same:http://www.astrokraai.nl/castrator.phphttps://sites.google.com/site/astropipp/Then I stack in Registax.http://www.astronomie.be/registax/For the Moon, I just stack in Registax.AutoStakkert! is also good.Alexxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
