Codecs for IS DBK?

[daz]

Hi all

I've not done any serious lunar imaging for ages so now the nights are short I thought I would pick up again...

I have a DBK21 colour camera, but the default codec seems to confuse AS2! What do people recommend as a decent one please?

Does this help:-

It says:- For uncomprimated AVI you can choose between different codecs we are delivering with our software (uncompressed Y800, uncompressed RGB24, uncompressed RGB32 or uncompressed UYVY)

i had a DFK varient and to get 60 fps it was necessary to use Y800 - and it never caused any problems witrh AS!2 - just remember to set the correct debayer mask in AS!2

I found this artticle very helpful:-

Just read those - and I think I am so used to mono stuff that I hadn't considered the bayer mask!

DO'H!
