Additional field for filename

Question

Idea 1:

 

Rather than use a capture plan to take, say, 30 images of 120s duration I'll sometimes set up a plan to just taken 15 images and run it twice, maybe adjusting orientation in between runs (or even going off and imaging another target).

 

It would be useful if there was some sort of counter which got incremented whenever a plan is run and which could be included in the filename, i.e.

 

M31_LIGHT_run01_300s_1600iso_f5-6_-11f_IDAS_20160913-10h26m27s739ms.cr2

 

so that when later stacking the images it's easier to group them together

 

Idea 2:


There have been occasions when tracking on my mount has stopped suddenly (probably/possibly due to me using an EQDIR adapter based on the prolific chipset).  Would it be possible for BYE to detect whether the mount is still tracking and automatically abort an image if it stops and pause a capture plan?
