An example of support about palte solving failure

A short video to show a support task for a plate solve failure from a user from Australia , i hope can useful for someone:

  • the image was taken at polar … never plate solve at polar if you are not sure to be aligned because a little movement of mount mean a huge move in AR coordinates
  • AR coordinate inside the file is hh 14. … solution is hh 02 … so 12 hours of difference
  • some plate solver can work other no

Result on various plate solver:

  • platesolve2 work
  • pintpoint full not work (only if i manually put a coord near the real position)
  • theskyx image link not work
  • theslkyx All sky blind work in few seconds
