Another skill I will only learn because of you, thanks Amy Astro

We love Your videos Amy❤️

[@AmyAstro]

Thank you!!!!

Amy, thank you so much! I can't believe how fast you got this video done! It explains perfectly where and how to do drizzling. Happy New Year!

[@AmyAstro]

Glad it was helpful! Your timing was good as I actually had time. lol

Thanks Amy, I was just wondering about the Drizzle, after a video of French KZbinrs published at Christmas Thanks for your videos, always very interesting Clear sky and Happy New Year

Excellent video Amy, thank you very much for share, I was making a mistake in the local normalization process witch got me work double on my integrated image, I'm working with 45 images (2 min. each) by 3 days of M42, will see... For now I wish you have a wonderful new years eve and my very best wishes for this coming year... Happy New Year 🎆 🥳🤗...

[@AmyAstro]

Happy New Year to you also!!!!

Hi Amy I think in the drizzle integration process you have to enter your normalisation files too. Anyway, nice video and thank you . Have a great new year. JM

[@AmyAstro]

You are right! Did I miss that? Dang it

[@gomanastro]

very good, been waiting to see somebody a video about this. It would have been nice to see at least a partially processed final image for each, to see the final difference. also, nice to see the individual steps like this. However, using the WPBB script to generate all this would be nice to see as well. I suppose if you don't use WPBB to integrate, and then generate the normalization files, the process you show would be the way it all has to be done. right?

[@AmyAstro]

I am still failing with WPBB and multi night images that I did not name well. I have got to take the time to figure it out.

Thanks Amy. After spending many nights comparing pre processing between PI and DSS, I have found absolutely no benefit on spending all the time on the extra complicated steps needed for doing this in PI. DSS will do the exact same thing including drizzle in half the time and with two clicks. I then do all the post processing in PI. Have you tried doing this in DSS? Happy New Year

[@AmyAstro]

Great tip! I have not tried DSS. When I started I only had a MAC. DSS was not compatible. No that I have a PC I will look into this. Thank you for the idea.

[@mostafametwally1]

@@AmyAstro same here I do all my processing on a Mac except pre processing with DSS on a PC. it is incredibly easy to do an initial run to exclude poor quality frames (it will give you a quality score) then with one click you can integrate them with x2 or x3 drizzle. It takes a fraction of the time compared to PI and rarely fails. Chuck from Chucks astrophotography actually did a side by side comparison of an image processed by DSS by PI and the results were the same.

@@mostafametwally1 Thank you! I need a time saver.

I watched this video to ascertain if I was drizzling properly in PI. I’ve been simply clicking on the drizzle option in WBPP and then using the master drizzle file that comes out on the backside. Am I smoking crack, or are the steps demonstrated here an old way of doing things before the one click option existed?
