The video seems to be very pixcelate in a full screen mode.
Is there a setting that I need to set to improve the quality?

Very cool video. Shows the frantic activity on the imaging field. Looks like an ant hill.

Great work Brendan. Was that an Alt/Az or Eq type mount for the moving shots?

I was using a SkyWatcher Star Adventurer for all the shots. I had the mount pointing vertical for the horizontal panning shots and used the sideral tracking rate. The mount was very portable which made moving it around Astrofest very easy. Most of the shots were for 30 seconds at 1600 / 3200 ISO.
