Latest nightly build downloaded today creates issues with platesolving with DSLR
I downloaded the latest nightly build this evening and when I tried to platesolve with my DSLR it failed on an invalid image file type error. My guess is that NINA told it to look for a FITS file and I sent over a CRW file. I installed the latest beta and all is well now. Just passing this along.

repo owner Yeah the save method of the ImageData object ignores the fits flag when raw dslr data exists unfortunately. A workaround would be to clear this raw dslr data as it is not required anyways before saving the image data

Yeah that’s the reason. I don’t think I’ll take quite that approach though. I need to mull it over The quick fix is to add a flag to ignore the raw data but that feels fishy. Perhaps I’ll do that to get this fixed immediately while I continue thinking about it.

repo owner yea agree. either way would be more of a hack until we make it clean.

Ah yes, I can see how this would happen now. For my reference, what Plate Solver were you using?
