Live deep sky stacking with AstroDMx Capture for Windows and Deep Sky Stacker Live working together

A Bresser Messier-AR-102-xs/460 ED, f/4.5 refractor was placed on a Celestron AVX mount. A Windows laptop was running AstroDMx Capture for Windows and Deep Sky Stacker Live (DSSL). A Fedora Linux laptop running PHD2 was used for multi-star pulse auto-guiding. Images of globular clusters M3 and M5 were captured by AstroDMx Capture for Windows, and DSSL live-stacked the images as they were captured.

Full details of the session showing all of the images can be seen HERE.
