New video training segments from Harry, concerning themselves with the new gradient/mosaicing plugin routines:

Hi Chris,

Whether you are directly involved in making deep-sky mosaics, or if you simply want to keep yourself informed about leading-edge development on the PixInsight platform, watching the latest video tutorial by Harry Page is a must:

In this video Harry shows you how to use the StarAlignment and GradientsMergeMosaic tools to generate *absolutely seamless* mosaics in PixInsight. StarAlignment belongs to the standard toolset available in all PixInsight distributions. GradientsMergeMosaic is a new tool under development, written by Georg Viehoever with contributions from Carlos Milovic and other PixInsight developers.

GradientsMergeMosaic belongs to the new GradientDomain module. To get this module you have to enable the update-development repository in your PixInsight installation(s). Please refer to the following post on PixInsight Forum for detailed information on the update-development repository and the required procedure to enable it:
