15th Feb 2024: Astro Pixel Processor 2.0.0-beta29 released - macOS native File Chooser, macOS CMD-Q fixed, read-only Fits on network fixed and other bug fixes
7th December 2023: added payment option Alipay to purchase Astro Pixel Processor from China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Korea, Japan and other countries where Alipay is used.
This is 17 hours of data, OSC camera, 3 minute subs. When I do integration without drizzle there is no artifact. The data is undersampled, dither is 10 pixels. In the integration tab I have it set to drizzle, droplet size 0.5 and scale 2.0.
Any suggestions. Should I be using the Bayer/Xtrans drizzle?
Not sure in this case, does this also happen when you increase the droplet size to e.g. 0.7?
I haven't tried any other size. I will try 0.7.
Hi Andrew @adstottyahoo-com,
The screenshot indicates that with the used settings too little data is receiving drizzle droplets, normally a larger droplet size will fix it quickly.
On the other hand, you seem to have more than enough data for those settings. Was every frame properly dithered?

I double checked my settings in NINA. When I set these settings into NINA is used a dither calculator; I just double checked the calculations. I have my guide camera set to 14 pixel dither which is 20 pixel dither on my 294 MC pro. It's a random dither setting and every third frame is dithered.
Would it help to post the drizzle image to the Synology server and have you take a look at it. The added noise in the image has an odd appearance as well; difficult to describe.
