(meteorobs) Deficit of southern meteor streams apparently confirmed

[Chris Peterson]

UFOCapture does work with USB cameras. It, and other meteor detection 
software, stacks frames for the purpose of creating astrometric 
reference images. But why would you want to stack frames for a meteor 
detection application? That just reduces the sensitivity to meteors and 
destroys the timing information required to analyze them fully.
