photo stacking

I expect this has been asked many times so please excuse me for asking it
again. Does anyone know of an equivalent to Registax which will work using
Linux?

Thank you

Norman

Norman,

Have you tried running Registax under Wine?

Yes I have tried without any success. Googling I have come across
reference to Astrostack which is supposed to run on Linux but it is not
free. Before lashing out, has any one experience of this please?

Bringing this back into attention. Like Norman, I am a newbie in here, and
Linux user. If Wine is not an option, what others do we have, please?

I have found a piece of software called AstroStack3LE. It is not free but
there is a trial version available on the website. It seems to work OK on
Ubuntu and doubtless will work on other versions of Linux. The only
difficulty I now have is that, lacking a video camera, I want to use the
video on my digital camera. This produces files which AstroStack cannot
read. However there is a piece of free software available, called rad
video tools, I think, which claims to convert files, such as avi to jpeg,
but requires windows. It appears to run in Crossover so may run in wine.
There is quite a lot of information on Google.

Hope this is helpful to Linux users.

Have you considered the "siril" package at
http://dulle.free.fr/alidade/siril.php
It has a registration/composit function which from my cursory look
seems to stack (or at least align) images

I shall have to get my French dictionary out but it looks interesting.

Just looked again and I see there is an English version.

I have tried rad video tools and although it staarts up in wine it will
not read any photo files from my system.
