I have spent hours / days searching and asking questions about using Starnet++ on a MAC. It's possible I just didn't understand what the variety of sources were telling me, but I was lost. I came across your video, followed it closely, and it worked!!!! Thank you for taking the time to create and post it!
Still can't get this to work. I've checked multiple times and the image name is correct. I've tried with my image and the sample images in the folder. Still get "no suitable image found".
Hello Dave, I run into this error with my M2 MBP "line 2: ./starnet++: Bad CPU type in executable" when running the "run_startnet.sh". Been trying to search online but no luck so far, do you have any idea?
"play a little druuuumz, and you come back.. and its dun" 😂 thanks for your video! Only wondering, Starnet Star removal will not work directly in Siril then?
Very helpful! Thanks for the insight. One thing I had to change (MacOS Ventura 13.5.1) was to allow applications from App Store and not App Store and identified developers. Before I changed this security settings, I was not able to upload the run file. Hope this helps someone. Cheers.
Sounds like a permission issue. Try to open the app in question and close the warning when it shows up. Click the Apple logo menu in the menu bar, and go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > the General tab. There, you should see an option labeled Open Anyway in the Allow apps downloaded from the section.
long time user of StarNet on my Macs, suddenly nothing worked, so, I am trying this routine. But, I can't make this work either. I have followed and checked and rechecked but I get a message that my file is not a directory, or sometimes get no response at all. I have not wiped the version one out of the system yet, could that be a cause?
fwiw, version 1 does not work either. I have tried on two computers, one with 10.13 and one with 10.15, both have the same errors and both are fresh downloads of StarNet.
It's pretty easy to install on windows.. you can follow along the tutorial to see how I use it in my workflow. Also, there is a link to some RAW data if you want to follow along. 😀 Clear skies!
Dave, hi, thanks a lot for the great video. I'm a Mac user myself. If I may ask, what software do you use/suggest under OSX for doing bias/flat/dark corrections to images and registering them? Thanks!
Hey Antonio, this is wv astronomy speaking on behalf of Dave, just fyi... he says he uses Astro Pixel Processor for stacking and calibrating.. thanks for the comment!
Nice workaround but way too complex...I think I will just purchase StarXterminator despite the price it will run as a plugin which makes it so much easier...
Sorry about that bud, but your the first one to say this, so going by the 10k other people who have had success, maybe your doing something wrong or something.. if you can point out where your having trouble, I can try and help figure it out man. 👍
If you change the edit your run_starnet.sh to look like this, when you run it you will be prompted for the input filename and output filename, it will wait 10 sec after each then process and output your file. #!/bin/bash echo "Enter input filename: $input" sleep 10 echo "Enter output filename: $output" sleep 10 read input read output ./starnet++ $input $output
I've been tearing my hair out trying to get StarNet to work - this worked first time. Still holds up despite march of time... Thanks, bro!

Hello,
Great instructions - unfortunately it doesn't work for me. Can it be related to the new Sonoma 14.0 operating system?
Many thanks, i understand with your video how it work with macOS !!

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I've talked to Dave and he says you should def try wiping the old version first
Super helpful! thanks!

I’m a big dum dum and looking for a software that allows me to capture images on my Mac. Can you help me? Thanks

Cool I got it to work. Now will someone please make a graphical interface for the Mac :)

If you change the edit your run_starnet.sh to look like this, when you run it you will be prompted for the input filename and output filename, it will wait 10 sec after each then process and output your file.
#!/bin/bash
echo "Enter input filename: $input"
sleep 10
echo "Enter output filename: $output"
sleep 10
read input
read output
./starnet++ $input $output
