What are you using for a capture program for the Atik 383L, and in what format are you capturing in.
Stuart, what is the average file size per sub?
The other interesting thing I'm aware of but ignorant about the "How it works" is binning. I have a low end Atik Infinity, I use the Atik capture software (cheating I know) and have seen binning in action, yet don't understand how this adds to the image. It sure speeds light capture in Black and White.

I forgot to tell, the price is what it costs me averaging over the equipment and images not what someone would pay for it (zero).
I want to capture images on a Raspberry Pi 3. ATIK drivers for Linux are available I believe, they advertise them on their site. ASI I would hope, haven't checked yet. I will be looking at INDIlib.org and associated links. I like the Pi because it's just a little box hanging off the USB port of my battery and runs forever.
Format? I presume there's only one.
Obviously this needs some work and convincing. If Linux does not work heck I will drag out my laptop ASCOM ball and chain. Installing on the Pi from source will be non trivial just slugging through it.
... Henk.
