Hi Han,
I have just downloaded the latest version and stacked some Canon raw image files I took last night. For some reason the resulting stack is orientated in portrait, not landscape. Any reason why this might suddenly have started happening?
Kind regards,
Phil
That is weird. Maybe something in the raw to fits conversion. First the raws are converted to FITS. You should check those if they are rotated.
I had some problems with LIBRAW, especially with a black area around the image. You can select DCRAW all in tab stack method as an alternative program. (left bottom of the menu)

Hi Han,
It seems to be a DCRAW/LIBRAW thing. Opens in landscape using LIBRAW and portrait using DCRAW. DCRAW does seem to give a nicer rendered image in the view window though.
I have attached a sample file.

Yes I aslo have the impression DRAW works better. The version supplied with ASTAP is also a special modified version where some thing like exposure time are exported. So you will see it in the resulting FITS.
I have downloaded your image and deleted from the forum to save space.

A user has hinted me on the -t 0 option for DCRAW. That disables the rotation. I will add this to the next version.
Great.
