Well, as I sit here hoping to get to my farm (and telescope) this weekend I began deleting AVIs from my Desktop (saved on DVD). I came across one from Feb 1 at 1:16-1:19 AM EST. I processed tit and it's not the best but here it is.

You shouldn't use auto or outdoor.

Nice Jupiter Jim! Do you have anything recorded with the auto settings?
I would be really interested to see if the color is OK. I hope so because now I feel a bit responsible, even more so because I already saw that Ralph is saying you should use neither the auto, nor the outdoor settings. I'm sure he says so because he has a better way to balance the white settings and I'm going to ask him to tell me how. I was only telling you guys what seems to work for me! So I hoped it worked for you also Jim.

Ciao Jim
