Welcome the Siril Project!

It’s a bit complicated right now because we are trying to make it build both on our machines and in the CI pipeline, indeed because of the out-of-source thing. We have moved to submodule for librtprocess, which should be better than cloning in the autogen.sh. If no makefile is generated it means that getting the sources or running cmake failed, strange.

The librtprocess sources are present.
There is a build subdir deps\librtprocess\build created. But there is no makefile in it. so it seems the cmakefile step is not run.

And while setting up the float branch, why you don’t go the Meson/ninja way on this branch?
And Autotools seems to me a legacy build system that I doubt any SW here use. And also very cryptic

Did you run the ./autogen.sh ?

For many reasons.
1 - we are on so many things in same time that is difficult.
2 - I am pretty bad to this stuffs like autotools, cmake and meson. It would take a long time to me to do something with it and @vinvin is very busy for now. It is always critical to remove something that works by something else…

EXCELLENT! One of my biggest concerns with Siril was that it was saving FITS files as signed 16-bit. (EDIT: I wrote 32, but it’s 16. S32 wouldn’t be so bad.)

Fortunately, at the time, I was primarily image stacking to synthesize long shutter speeds for motion smoothing, and not for noise reduction. So 15 bits of dynamic range was more than enough.

Side note: A great feature for workflows that used raw files from a DSLR or mirrorless as input would be to save out a DNG with metadata that matches the input camera, instead of FITS. It’s a bit of a hassle to convert FITS to TIFF with imagemagick, rename to DNG, then tag the DNG manually with appropriate metadata. Biggest challenge might be embedding the appropriate color matrix for inputs that weren’t DNG to begin with…

Each time I build, I stash all modifications and all untracked files in the repo.
Then I run autogen.sh

yes, I quite understand

OK. Thanks.
float is always a WIP. So it is normal there are some issues :).
@vinvin is working hard on it.

If you prefer I can post bug reprts on your repo.

Yes you can ;).

You can download the flatpak artifact of the latest finished flatpak job here

Hello dear friends.
I’ve been using siril for about a year or more and I’m very grateful to the programmers by this fantastic project. With help of siril I’m finding my way through the astrophotography while, also, learning to use the program.
I find great to be able to use the raw files from the DSLR directly from the start of the processing but I miss a way to create sequences of .fits files directly from .fits files without the need for a new conversion of those files. Some capture programs (like ekos) download the image from the DSLR to the HD and saves them directly in .fits format. If siril could begin processing those .fits files directly that would save a lot of space in the HD and time.

At the moment I have lo tell siril to convert those .fits files into other .fits files just in order to have a .seq file generated.
Is there a better way or a way I’m not aware of? Or this is not available at the moment?

If this is not the right place to ask, just let me know where is the right place.

Any help would be appreciated.
All of you have a nice carnival.
Cheers.

Hello,

Thank you very much for your feedback,

You’ll find your answer in this video, which I just made a few days ago.

Siril automatically recognizes a sequence when the fits files are named for example as follows: example001.fit example002.fit example003.fit…

Clear Skies,

Laurent

Thank you argonothe!

Hi everyone

I’ve given Siril a plug. Not many seem to have heard about or know what it does.

C’mon guys!

Yes, I wrote some posts a couple year ago on stargazers lounge, but I’ve stopped.
