Subframe selector

edited January 2022 in PixInsight
Simple question I could answer myself if I were not off grid in the boon docks. Only have internet for and hour or two in the morning. For rgb fits files, do I run them through subframe selector first or after WBPP ? If its after do I use debayered files or something else? Thanks

    Hi Paul,

    Sorry, the question is phrased in a way that confuses me. If you have 'RGB" files, then you are not using an color filter array (OSC) image- so debayering isn't an option (you are already "debayered" :) ). 

    I have found that running calibrated frames through SFS is best in terms of analysis. Thus, if you wanted to use WBPP- you would only use it (initially) to calibrate the data. Then use SFS to cull poor frames.You could technically go back to WBPP to complete the rest of the processing- or just do the registration and image integration yourself. There is an additional consideration of whether you want to use the NSG script as well.  I personally use my eye/brain to do most culling of frames with blink and then rely on weighting schemes to take care of the rest of the data.

    Actually I am sung a OSC . Sorry about the confusion. Do I calibrate all of my files (flats, darks, etc) or just lights before running them through SFS? I am assuming I calibrate lights in WBPP, then lights to SFS, then back to WBPP for all file type calibration and then resume as normal with star alignment and then integration.
