I'm sure this is an old topic and no one is reading this thread anymore but I have to vent... The reload option has not worked for the error messages , now nor 2 months ago. At this point I start getting them within the first 5 movies. It makes no difference between 'current movie' or 'next movie'- ...

Sorry - don't know how to make it a link and wrong # ...

Animal, mineral or vegatable -http://stardustathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ... =4471422V1

Clicked on ALPHA early on ... I consider the stray objects coming into focus at the same time (to me, means relatively flat) the surface and the track begins to focus just below.
Hope I would have clicked on BETA if I ever saw it.

Just a suggestion for whoever is making the calibration movies with tracks - they're getting real easy to spot... that large pixelation.
Maybe some noise and a little blur will get them more in line with the real movies.

That was the case - thanks.

I was told what WCO meant - it has since been changed to BWCO.
I' m pretty acronym unsavvy - any ideas??

Old one updated -
http://stardustathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ... =6722976V1 152 53 Passed cut 1 bad focus, WCO
and just clicked on thread namesake -
http://stardustathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ... =8153179V1 150 46 Passed cut 1 IDP or ejecta

Interesting obervations... here's the earlier one deemed bad focus WCO - http://stardustathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ... =9527088V1 Comes out of the lower pile on the left.

http://stardustathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ ... =9471219V1 - it's pretty obvious.

Updated from last week -
Movie 9471219V1 124 78 Passed cut 2 IS candidate?

Thank you ...

Another one-
Movie 9527088V1 93 33 Passed cut 1 bad focus, but WCO
Way down my list ... but what is WOC?

Seeing alot of these lately - up and down focal range nothing, no reference point at all. No dot of any size, nothing that looks like surface. Clean except maybe a little gradient change. Should I assume it's already below the surface and there is no track?

I guess to clerify... I said closed speck - but that's how it appears. If the object is 2 pixels in diameter there is no way to display a "doughnut".
We're probably viewing movies 72 dpi, those checking the hi-rez film would see it more clearly.
