Install Siril, Astrometry.net, local catalogues, and StarNet2 in macOS

#1

Post by rodrigopolo »

If anyone here is interested in using Siril on macOS with Apple Silicon, for processing your sequences, I made a cheat sheet with the Terminal commands to install Astrometry.net plate solver, local catalogues, StarNet2 and some scripts, after installing them, just go to Siril Preferences and set the path to the location of each CLI. BTW, for some reason that is way to long to explain, Siril GUI doesn't allow a margin of error on the resolution information needed for the Astrometry.net plate solver, in the cheat sheet I included a bash script that once created in any path, and with the right permissions, allow for a truly blind plate solve:
