Advice on which programs to use

Hi, I am looking at giving AP a bit of a go.
The equipment i have and will be using for now is:
Skywatcher 16" Dobsonian with goto
Cano EOS 5DSR, Looking to get a cheap DLSR and do the modification on that

So I guess there is going to be two parts to the question as i want to do both Planetary and also DSO

So with Planetary, i have found out from research that i need to take a video, maybe up to around 30 seconds to 2 minutes long.

For DSO, take at least 30 shots just to get the idea of the processing side of things.

What programs do you advise to use for Planetary work?
I have heard of Registack, but it looks like that is used for the final touch up work.
What would you advise to use before that, I have only just come across one called autostakkert, but apart from that this is about all i am aware of.

I am guessing i might have to use something similar for DSO ?

Any advise would be appreciated.
Thanks.
