Deep Sky Stacker - Grey Issue

[mswhin63 (Malcolm)]

I will have a careful read and try as well, because mine are coming out grey. I noticed when loading the image files the colour column says the image is grey so I thought that was it but will give the ideas above a go.

Even though DSS "grey" is nullified when opended in post processing software (as long as the appropriate save slection is done), I still think that DSS plays a bit with the colour balance.

A direct comparison with DSS and AIP4WIN can be found here:

I used the same De Bayering algorithm for each.

Would like to hear others opinions, but I think AIP4WIN does a better job.

I suggest you do a bit of colorimetry before final conclusions.
Also, the post-processing must be exactly the same, preferably automated.
I suppose the same colour spaces have been used for both images?
If according to developers DSS does not add any artefacts (which is my experience as well) then perhaps AIP4WIN does something to the image (which should not be the case)? Perhaps you used some settings without being aware of?

Bojan, I will check it out again to make sure.
