Also, how much magnification do you get from the projection eyepeice? would it be similar to a 2x barlow?
Chris, the raw video is converted to an avi in Pipp. I then stack that .avi in Autostakkert and adjust the wavelets from the resulting .tif file in Registax. They're all free downloads you can get on the net, just do a search for them. I finish the final sizing and colour adjustments in Photoshop.
These shots were taken with a 9mm eyepiece attached to a 2.5x Televue Powermate. The scope has a native 1000mm focal length so I think the final image enlargement would be over 250x.
