Dale, I do imaging so infrequently that I have to re-learn the software just about every time I use it. The older I get, the more repetition I need to learn, darnit. I've only had the DSLR for about six months and I'm still not all the way through the manual. It's a whole different animal than the HD hard-drive video camera. I'll be getting a new computer in the next month or so; I may hold off on processing anything else until I get the new one up and running, and all the software installed. Image files are getting so big now that it takes my old XP machine forever to process stuff, let alone just uploading files! I recently started storing all my video and still image files on an external hard drive, so it will be easy to just swap that out to the new machine.

Hi Chuck,
I think typically you would be dealing with AVI format video files. You can also use other formats (FITS, JPEG, etc.) if you have single frame imagery. The bayer masking is performed by the camera. From there you can use the enhanced techniques the article discussed to debayer or you can pipe it into Registax or other stacking software.
Personally, I'm just getting started with this stuff.
