CLI solve inconsistent
Stacking program, astrometric (plate) solver, fits file viewer

Hello,
using blind solve with the GUI to get Ra/Dec (spd), solving by cli fails unless I keep radius above 90 and fov on auto. At times, it doesn't even generate any output files (ini). I have an observatory app that calls astap with the current scope Ra/Dec, but as I am testing offline, reason I used astap GUI to get the coordinates from a test tiff. The image is from a 50mm F/L finder used to more accurately point the main imaging scope. It worked very well on an Rpi using Astrometry, but I moved it to the main PC with astap and would prefer to have shorter solve times.
Regards
Hi Andre,
If you need blind solve then the input start ra, dec position has a large offset. How does you setup give a start ra,dec position to astap or astap_cli? So which app are you using and how does it send the mount position and field-of-view (focal length...) to the solver?
Secondly are you using astap or astap_cli program?
cs, Han
