Shooting star?

To answer some of the questions from the original post, take a look at your stacking settings. Stacking works (simplistically) by averaging the pixel values across all the subs, so a faint line on one sub will be swamped by the other subs which don't have the line.

To get the shots with all the meteors showing on the one image, you have to stack for the background and then composit the individual frames with the meteors, over the top. You can do this in Photoshop by pasting the meteor image as a new layer ontop of your background image, and then setting the layer blending mode to 'lighten'. One happy side effect of the stacking is that, provided you don't crop your base image first, the individual meter or images should line up.

Here's an example, a satellite with an initially relatively bright trail that flares and then fades back to the same brightness. It looks quite similar to a meteor with a terminal burst but I can assure you it's a satellite. A satellite may be so dim that it doesn't register on a photograph. If it then appears to flare up, it can just appear on one exposure but not be seen on the one before or after it.

Looks just like the meteor example in August S@N

Not sure which one you're referring to or whether you mean magazine or TV show but as far as I've seen, they are all correctly attributed.

Just pointing out that it's difficult for us non experts to tell the difference, especially given the limitations of magazine photo reproduction.
