SIRIL went to sleep ?

Software Siril

Hi There,

I have been using SIRIL beta 0.99.4 for about a week or so now and found something odd today.

I was processing a stack of 200 lights, 30 darks, 30 biases using the “DSLR_Preprocessing_NoFlat.ssf” script. It stated as usual

17:17:07: ############################################
17:17:07: # Script for Siril 0.9
17:17:07: # January 2019
17:17:07: # (C) Cyril Richard
17:17:07: # Modified by Colmic
17:17:07: # DSLR_preprocessing v1.2
17:17:07: ########### PREPROCESSING SCRIPT ###########

But about 20 minutes into processing the batch SIRIL seemed to have gone to sleep for 2 hours. I have included the processing time a file before and after as well below.

17:27:54: Reading FITS: file light_00108.fit, 1 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
17:27:54: Filter Pattern: RGGB

19:27:41: Saving FITS: file pp_light_00110.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels

And this happened again several times

20:29:42: Reading FITS: file light_00121.fit, 1 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels

and again

21:03:19: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00049.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
21:03:24: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00050.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
23:03:06: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00051.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
23:03:11: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00052.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels

and again

01:04:59: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00072.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
01:05:04: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00073.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
02:34:48: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00074.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels
02:34:54: Reading FITS: file r_pp_light_00075.fit, 3 layer(s), 5496x3672 pixels

Any reason for this ?

I don’t have an older version of SIRIL to test this with, but if the developers want me to I will download and test.

Full log is attached ( as .txt )

This is strange yes.
First you have to know that the scripts you are using are deprecated, but that do not explain your issue. I would say your OS was very busy…

Hi, what OS is this running on, how do you start siril with the script, how did you add the time?

4

I am on MacOS High Sierra
iMac 21.5" , Mid 2011
2…5gh Core i5
32GB memory
SSD drive
( Ok, don’t laugh! )

I start Siril as usual and the select the script from the “script” menu.
The time is directly from Siril Log.

Hope that helps

I did not know its deprecated. I had the devils own time finding the script and installing it. I thought you just did not add it in the Beta.

Why would you deprecate this ? It’s a really useful script.

6

Because new scripts replace it.

Do you use homebrew? Or bundle?

7

Also check your power settings, maybe the computer goes to sleep after some inactivity.

8

Bundle. Downloaded the disk image file for mac

Ahh… did not think about that, since it’s an iMac. :man_facepalming:

I checked and it’s set to sleep after 10 mins.

Anyway, I changed the setting and will try run the new scripts to see if they worked.
