Weird exposure counter error

[Cedric Raguenaud]

I have been running a sequence for the last few nights. I noticed that the exposure counter doesn’t behave right.

For example:

I have 50 exposures for Ha and 50 exposures for OIII. On the first day, I take 37 exposures for Ha. At the end of the session, I save the sequence and close Nina. The next day, I start Nina again, load the sequence and run it. The Ha counter shows 37/50, which is expected. But when the counter gets to 50/50, instead of moving to OIII exposures, it goes back to 0/50 and continues taking Ha images. I don’t know if it would have stopped at 37/50 (to make it 50 images on the day) because I ended up deleting the Ha part of the sequence to move on.

This has happened 3 times in 3 days, with various Beta versions.

It’s like there are 2 counters that get out of sync: one for the current session, which is the one controlling exposure number, one for the sequence, controlling counter display. I didn’t have time to search in the code to see if that’s the case.

I attach the complete log from last night in case it contains anything useful.

Please share the sequence used too, to understand the setup.

Hello,

Here is the sequence. It’s missing the Ha for M1, which I deleted to move to OIII last night.

Thanks.

Your Sequence did exactly what was specified. The 50 smart exposures are inside a set which has loops attached. so it will repeat those 50 exposures until altitude > 35°, while safe and sun altitude > -12° before moving on to anything next.
The smart exposure iterations won’t affect this, as these are on a lower level.

Oh I see. I’m not used to that sequencer yet and I misunderstood how these loops worked. Thanks, I’ll rewrite the sequence.
