PSS failing. Not sure why
stevecoh1 opened this issue · comments
This was my first attempt at using PSS. I am trying to stack a bunch of images of Saturn, in the form of .fits files that were taken the other night with my Celestron 4se telescope, a Svbony-3o5 camera, using Ccdciel on a Raspberry pi. This resulted in three series of fits files, each 4.2MB.
I tried running them through PSS and it produced the following errors:
Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.

I'm not sure what any of this means. It's quite possible I did something wrong in the capturing, but the files all do contain some rather low quality and small images of Saturn. Without sending you the massive amount of data (I can, if you like), I wonder if you could tell me what these messages indicate. Is it possible that these alignment rectangles are missing the small image?
Thank you for all you've done here.
It seems I needed to click the "Planetary" option.
That's right! Does it work if you click this option?
I guess the „Planetary“ option solved your problem. If not, please re-open the issue.
