THANKS!!!
I came down here just to get this, you are the best!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I installed Pixinsight and all of the add-ons/plugins with no problems while watching the video. I can't imagine how long it would have taken to install the add-ons without your advice. I recently retired and took up astrophotography as my retirement hobby. Your videos have helped guide me through many of the issues and problems I have encountered. Thank you.
Finally! Not for dummies, but for newbies who really want to learn. Just talk (teach) to me like you're talking to your golden retriever!
thank you, i'm stupid new and need a dummies like this. you rock!
great video! thank you! I suggest doing a github gist or some other plain way of displaying the plugin URLs, depending on your view youtube truncates the URLs so you can't copy them, and you can't right-click copy URL because it will be the CZcams redirect URL
Your info is always very helpful, thank you
Im debating getting PixInsight myself. Its $442 Canadian! 😮 Totally in the dark with functionality, but practice makes perfect I guess eh! 🤣
Great videos
Thank you so much for this video... so useful... just like your whole channel
Fantastic stuff, this video alone is worth the sub..
Would love to see videos on using PI for landscape astro processing. I haven’t seen any content covering this.
Hello Peter❤
Fantastic tutorial, thanks a lot! I struggled with the updates part on my mac, but going safe mode resolved this issue.
--> ghsastro plugin is not available anymore. What was this for?
Cheers Rog
I have several Scripts (CreateHDRImage, Graxpert, CreateHubblePalette, perhaps others) that give me the ERROR: Signature verification failed for "the particular tool": Invalid code signature....
Any idea what's wrong?
The URLs for the plugins in the description are showing as abridged for me. I had to actually go to the URL and copy from the browser.
Not getting the Tools option. The updates link has a 404 error
