Help with stacking Jupiter/Saturn images

[blinky]

First time using Autostakket and Im a little confused!  I load my image in, click analyse, get it to create alignment points but when I want to save, I want to stack the best 50% (Whats a reasonable % to stack?  This is 2000 frames source file) - what are the 4 options for?

Also, any tips on using wavelets in Registax?  Never really done any planet imaging for years!  I knocked up an IR filter with some film somebody gave me years ago and had a we go last night with my 8" SCT and ASI120mini

AS!3 lets you create multiple stack in single go (different percentage of frames stacked)

If you put in some value in respective box - that stack will be created and if you leave 0 - it will not be created.

You can thus create 10 and 20 percent stacks by specifying either 10, 20, 0, 0 or 20, 10, 0, 0 (not sure if other combinations work as well - I ever used only ones where unused slots were to the right. I did however use all 4 at the same time - and it works - it creates multiple stacks).

Ah!  How obvious!  I get it now and yes it works a treat....  Thanks

This is a good explanation to using wavelets in Registax.

Here is a good tutotial on planetary imaging using Autostakkert, Registax and WinJuPos.
