Difficult to be certain Peter, as always to post an image(s) here - would help to make a reasonable answer for you.

Please supply whatever you have taken on say "Solar Software" page or even "Commercial Solar Filters/Cameras/Hardware" page, where one or more of us might be able to assist. Using the current and expected clear-weather, is now the time to get some good results.

I know of your set-up from previous conversations and it is possible that if the sky is well-clear, that you might need a longer exposure than 4.38ms, so just take many exposures as single-frames only at first and increase the exposure-speeds through 1.00ms for each one up to say 20ms (if needed) and then see what sample-images are showing on the screen...

Remember CLEAR-ish SKIES, FOCUSING ACCURATELY and TAKE NOTES OF SUCCESFUL-SharpCap settings for future use - could be the way forward...

No need to worry about processing those single-frames before submitting them for us to see here, AS LONG AS EACH IMAGE DOES NOT EXCEED TWO Mbytes EACH AS JPEG's...

Cheers
Terry

Ok Peter, other than the low-resolution 72Kbyte image extracted from SolarChat above, this is the processed image - with relevant comments within.

Cheers

Good shot Peter, the scope is not on band, that's all, being on band you will pull out a lot more detail.
