Light Frames & Calibration Frames Problem


Mako

Question

I just did a reinstall on BYEOS yesterday. Did some Milky Way images last night then came home and did my Calibration frames, none of them were the same size for some reason, and DSS will not stack frames that are not the same height and width.

Everything was set for 15 seconds at 1600 ISO Canon T7i...Never seen this before using this program.

 

Any suggestions as to what happened here?

 

Thanks,

 

Rod

The overall size does not need to be the same. You need to look at the metadata of the images to compare the width and height of the image area.

If the image dimensions are different then it is likely a camera setting that was changed. BYE takes the image and downloads it. The dimensions are determined by the camera.

You also did not say what version of BYE you are using, per the orange banner at the top of the forum page.

Let me run a sample thru DSS so I can see the specific error...I was assuming the download was the latest, I'll check it. i just had to do a Win 10 reinstall, so I'm just trying to get everything back in order...

hang on a sec guys, I'll get your answers...

Version 3.2.2

Well, for the life of me I don't know what I did...I just did quick set of 5 each Cal frames and ran them all thru. Working fine now. 

Senior moment I guess... 😑

Sorry to bother, and thanks...Have a great weekend..!

One more comment, I think what happened was I missed one of the Jpeg files in there with the CR2's That would do it.  This is a Canon T7i and the RAW setting also generates a Jpeg with each Sub...Guess they all do this not sure. I'm used to my ZWO

If you get both the JPG and RAW it's because you have it setup like this.  If you only want RAW goto settings and select RAW only for image quality.

Mako,

At the start of your post you said that you re-installed BYEOS. You could have installed any version. Yes, including a JPG file in the list of lights or darks could have caused DSS to display that error. The JPGs have been debayered the  RAWs have not.

Guylain,

I assumed that Mako provided screenshot to highlight that the files were all different sizes. This is normal, however the CR2 files should all include images with the same number of pixels (image height times image width).

RAW files will differ in size slightly from image to image.  This is partly because a JPG image is embedded in the .CR2 files and JPG do differ in size from image to image.  The RAW data inside the .CR2 is unaffected by this.
