Interesting, I'll have to find what you mean there, look around the options.

Roger, you use PixInsight, so, calibrate frames, register frames and integrate them. Then equalise RGB values to 1 and extract L and work separately on L and colour. Then re-combine L+colour(RGB).

I'd love to not need to split the RGB channels. It seems silly to do so, but I found if I didn't I ended up with grayscale images, colour data lost

I'll try in PI again, I'm not sure if I tried there originally or just CCDStack which is what I prefer using for .FIT
Thanks
