I have stellarmate OS updated (1.7.9, and I have updated today)

If I create a HDR sequence of astrophoto (8x30sec + 4x60sec + 2x120sec + 1x240sec) in module camera, saved as ShotHDR16m.esq, so a total of 16minute exposure, The scheduler incorrectly calculates the photo exposure.

For 1 sequence it estimates 10 minute for every sequence (8+4+2+1)
For 5 sequence it estimates 9 minute
For over 8 sequence it estimates 8 minute per sequence

The sequence 8+4+2+1 is 16 minutes long. (8x30sec + 4x60sec + 2x120sec + 1x240sec) not 8 minute, so scheduler have some problems with a lot of target.

It's not just exposure duration. You have other delays like:
1. Download time
2. In-sequence focusing?
3. Dithering
...etc many factors contribute to the total *actual time*

EDIT: I asked Hy to look into this since it is indeed too short.

That's strange, Francesco. I tried to reconstruct your case, and I get 20min calculated runtime, which is a good estimation.

Could you please share your .esq and .esl files?
