Getting a strange error when running scripts generated by Sirilic

Can someone shed some light on what the issue seems to be?

I took my master bias and darks in .xisf format and saved them as .fits 32b floating point with PI to try out Siril…

log: # OFFSET MASTER BUILDING
log: Running command: cd
5: running command cdlog: Setting CWD (Current Working Directory) to ‘G:\Images\M 81\M 81\L\S01\OFFSETS’
log: Running command: stack
5: running command stack***another image was found in the FITS file but does not has the same parameters as the first one
log: No sequence found, verify working directory or change FITS extension in settings (current is .fit)
log: No sequence `offsets’ found.
log: Error in line 25: ‘stack’.
log: Exiting batch processing.
log: Setting CWD (Current Working Directory) to ‘G:\Images\M 81’

Thank you!

Actually digging a little further myself…

The issue seems to be that I am using master dark and bias, and it is trying to stack these and fails.
If I manually edit the script to not stack, and copy the master bias and dark into the respective MASTER folders, and run the script in SIRIL - it works…!

Does SIRILIC not support master calibration frames or am i missing something?

Hi, this message is very unusual. Please review your images from the OFFSETS directory, it looks like one is not a valid image.

Also, I’m not sure what you mean with the pix insight part, did you take the master from PI to put it in the directory of bias raw images? You’re not supposed to use master files directly like that I guess, because it’s looking for a sequence here.

Hi,

Yeah like I stated in my own reply, if I edit the script and manually move the masters into the master folder, then it works fine.
I used the assign master bias and master dark button from the menu in sirilic and it adds the masters as a single dark and single bias.

So I assume this to be a bug in Sirilic…

On another note… Jeeeeeebus Siril is fast :smiley:

@M27trogonondepomme when you get the chance maybe you can take a look at that?
Thanks Johanness for the details, we’ll sort it out.

To use master calibration files, and not a sequence, I called the masters master_dark and master_flat and modified the scripts

#build master-dark
cd darks
convert master_dark -out=…/process
cd …

Build Master Flat

cd flats
convert master_flat -out=…/process
cd …

Convert Light Frames to .fit files

cd lights
convert light -out=…/process
cd …/process

#Pre-process lights
preprocess light -prefix=pp_ -dark=master_dark_00001.fit -flat=master_flat_00001.fit -cfa -equalize_cfa -debayer
