With today’s smart telescopes, a target can consist of thousands of images. To get the max out of these tiny scopes, drizzle becomes very important. However, the way Siril works right now, I have to drizzle all the images before I can sort them. I have a 4TB M.2 drive, but even this is not enough sometimes.
A way around this would be to run Siril at 1x first, cull the images and then when you get to the stack tab, have an option to save the stacked files only. At least then we don’t have to waste time drizzling poor frames.
Well, you already have many ways to do that. First you can use the 2-pass registration. The Drizzle is then applied after the first pass.
You can also yse the blink script.
Well, I can’t get the 2-pass to do anything different. It still drizzles everything.
But I found a great little program for sorting through your images. It is called Tenmon, and is WAY faster than Siril’s Frame list. With Tenmon, you can hold down the spacebar and watch the image roll past. Supports Mac as well.
