Thanks Russ & John!
Russ, that's the magic of WinJupos. You're right that it rotates much too fast otherwise - I partly follow Chris Go's method, which involves taking sequences of R, G, B, R, G, B etc, each exposure is only 35s long, but gets me about 2500 frames, of which I'll stack ~80%. With Winjupos, you can derotate/combine the frames together to get much better signal to noise without losing detail to the planetary rotation, ending up in a better final image. You can chuck away the bad stacks as well.
