So I got the recommended heat sink today and its currently sitting on top of my MeLE 3 - temp is 38-40C with my 26m in Sharpcap running in a test shot, cap on the telescope, 1600x1200, cooler running to -5C, Mono16 ULN mode. Current load is 8% on Core 0. If I remove the sink... 40-42C mark and this is nothing else running apart from Windows. So the Sink works. Whats the best way to get the sink onto the body work? Thermal paste is great for flat tiny CPU surfaces... how will it affect the bumped large surface area of the pc? Thanks for the video! Ok the temp is now 47-55C. SC off - idling at 43-44C.

If without having a perfect curve like the one you have in your example, it turns out that you have punctual and well-defined stars, how important is it to perfect this curve, I am new to Nina and I come from Asiair?

Hi, thanks for this interesting video. I'm a new an enthusiastic user of3.1 NINA, but I hacve a problem that I cannot solve, after meridian flip, PHD2 do not invert the guide and the mount goes towards east instead of west... in my configuration, I'm using PHD2 and ASi120 connected direct throug the cable to the EQ6-R mount, controlled by GS Server Do you have any suggestion? Thanks a lot again Roberto

hi, great tutorial, thanks! Are the master calibration files saved, and if so where? Can I point HOPS to them in another imaging set?

Good stuff! With rotation of the camera, do you take new flats (for dust) each time you rotate? Dust on the sensor would be consistent. Dust on the lenses relative to sensor will change with each rotation, no?

I have reproducibility problems using this. I polar align, start 6 minutes off (I was polar aligned from the night before), and got to well under 1 minute. Redid the polar alignment immediately, and was about 6 minutes off again. With sharpcap when I redo polar alignment immediately, or an hour later it's very consistent. If I get within 30 arc seconds, an hour later I get a similar measurement. Granted, 6 minutes isn't bad, and it's great to be able to do this if Polaris isn't visible, but for me this would be a fall back method rather than a primary method.

Very helpful! Thanks A LOT!!!

My son and I are late to the NINA game. We've been using SGP which we could never get to do more than take images. NINA EVERYTHING works! Total game changer for us we were doing everything the hard way. This playlist has been our definitive guide to using NINA Thank You!

Great vid but quick question. So, once I complete the setup, if I want to use this, I need to attach a keyboard and screen so I can then log onto the Raspberry Pi SH before I can access through the Web-UI?

Is there a PDF file with these explanations? It would be fantastic!

How to preview photos so that they are black and white just like yours. When I download the repository, there are colorful thumbnails of the objects.

I just started, and having difficulty finding info on NINA+Nikon, in particular mirrorless Zf. Do you have any video on this or references?

Perfect! Thank you!

Do you know if Chrome Remote Desktop would work over this network? Or does Google Chrome Desktop need an actual internet connection

Does Sky Atlas Offline Framing actually do any plate solving? Or is only framing?

Thank you for this excellent video - as usual highly informative! I wonder if you might provide me with an alternative theodolite App. The one you recommend I cannot find it for Android. Do you know an App that would do the job for Android phones? Many thanks

Great stuff. I have a question. If I am using MONO LRGB sequence do I also need to include a start up sequence ? I keep getting an error that guiding cannot start when guiding is already enable. WHat am I doing wrong?

Fantastic tutorial, so clear and usefull! many thanks.

You do an excellent job of describing how to do this process in an easy to follow manner. Much appreciated.

Another Great vid! At the end, when you show your semi-permanent rig, does the power cord not overheat inside the PVC compartment? Same question regarding the Pi; it doesn’t overheat inside the PVC compartment? I didn’t notice any vents. And if you did have vents, how would you keep the rain out? Thanks for all the informative videos. I appreciate them all!

Very cool! 3 years later and only a few hundred views... makes no sense to me.

Thanks for the video

Hi. Is there anything you would change to this build? I am researching to build my own.

Thank you!

Hello, but once the polar alignment has been done, how do you synchronize the mount to ensure that the coordinates of the mount itself correspond to the coordinates resolved with plate solving? Thank you

v3 Camera Firmware 4.36.9.139 is no longer available for download. Any suggestions?

Today I bought my third type of cable, to finally be able to use my mount without the HC. I found out that this last cable that I got today is only for AsiAir.... None of the 3 cables working with my notebook. I'm very lost now, nowhere to see a solution, tried everything. Does the cable you made, will work with laptop too or only with the AsiAir?

Great video for a newbie to astrophotography. Question.. my version of NINA asks for site elevation as does my skywatcher handset. It's around 200m here in Spain but NINA gives an error that it can't reach this elevation. Do you have any thoughts/ideas. Much appreciated.

Receiving my Mele quiter 4C today and is will do a fresh Windows install on the faster drive as per your instructions. Thanks a lot for clear and easy guides making our astrolives more enjoyable! ❤

3D printer is the astronomer friend :D

I ran the filter offset and accepted, however I did not choose my new autofocus filter. Is there a way to go into NINA and fix that or do I need to run the whole process again?

All your videos are a blessing for a beginner like me, thanks a lot!

I can't seem to get the thing to be added to my panoramic one. It just never shows it.

Excellent video. Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together!

Own a Quieter3C. This video helped me a lot. I bought the exact same heat sink and everything works as expected. My Quieter3C is way cooler now and the heat sink is in the hot seat!!! Thanks "Patriot Astro".

Not sure if you are still actively adding new content Chad, but many thanks for all your videos. Your detailed overviews of stuff, particularly in NINA are excellent. Thank you for all the hard work!

You are the real patriot

I am a 70 year old astrophotography newbie. Just getting started with NINA. This video was very helpful. Thanks!

Super info, thank you

Hi PA. I have a question about the 10:00 mark. When setting the focal ratio, are you taking into account if you are running a reducer/flattner? For example, I have a telescope with an aperture of 6.5 and focal length of 780mm. But i'm running a reducer/flattner of 0.8 which brings my focal length to 624mm. What would my aperture be? Thanks!

I am impressed by your teaching skills! Is that now or has that been your "real job"? In any case, thanks for your efforts!

Thank you for all the NINA content! Wonderful instructions and so comprehensive. Much appreciated!!!

Thanks for the tutorial. I wonder, when running two setups with the synchroniced wait. Can I stop one setup earlier? See when there is a meridian flip, the second rig is pointing in the wrong region of the sky, so in case I dont want to readjust everything i would just stop taking pictures with that. but that also means, that any synchronize command on the main rig would wait forever for a synch as the second rig is out of the routine already. no? A workaround would maybe be that the meridian flip is a trigger to stop both routines and then only the main righ starts another imaging routine.

The camera website has made links to the firmware discussed in your video inactive, I'm late

Great video, but I see that Wyze no longer support RTSP for Version 3 cameras, and don’t provide the firmware update anymore…..☹ any ideas….?

Two years old and still a relevant video, Chad! Moving from Voyager to NINA (and I loved Voyager for its DragScript) - but I'm discovering (as a result of your videos) that much of what I use in Voyager can be done in the advanced sequencer in NINA - conversion accomplished! I'm using 3.1 Beta.

will this work for wyze cam v4

As time passed, 2024 arrived, and NIN still didn’t have a simple algorithm - to shoot a panorama one frame from each installed plate in a circle and as many times as you indicate in the Progress line. Why then the Cycle and One after another mode? It’s a pity that this only works within one sequence, for example for mono cameras when shooting with filters, but does not work for different sequences when shooting a panorama.

Version 4.36.9.139 is no longer available for download on the Wyze site. Where can I get it now?

I am new to deep sky imaging. I have Hydrogen-alpha clip-in filter which I am using with Canon 6D astro-modified. I am confused how to change the filter while my RGB exposures are running. Coz if I plug the filter in the plate-solving settings will also change right? Should I stop the exposures and then start plate-solving again?
