Save / Export

Seestar image and video file saving and downloading involve a few different options depending on the type of file and your desired method of retrieval.

Saving

JPG and MP4 are standard formats for photos and videos, respectively. Seestar automatically saves JPEG images to the “My Album” folder in your Seestar, while AVI (RAW) videos are saved in the “Video” folder. These files are ready for viewing and sharing immediately.

RAW (FITS): These are unprocessed image files that are not compressed so they allow for greater flexibility in post-processing. Seestar saves them in My Album in Seestar Files, accessible from the Home screen.

AVI files are videos created with the RAW mode turned on. These files are not compressed and can be disassembled frame by frame, graded for quality, and only the good ones stacked to produce the best possible final image.

Exporting from app

You can move your images from the Seestar to a computer directly from the mobile app or save them to your phone's photo album. Select JPEGs in My Album and tap the share icon. This will give you options to download, export, or share the images.

Connecting to a Computer

You can connect Seestar to your computer using the provided USB-C to USB-A cable included in the Seestar package, or with an aftermarket USB-C to USB-C if that’s what your computer uses. Your computer will recognize your Seestar as a removable storage device. You can then access the “eMMC” folder where images and videos are stored. A USB-C thumb drive will work too.

If you enabled Station Mode on Seestar and have your computer connected to the same Wi-Fi network you can use the Mac Finder or the Windows File Explorer to access the files stored on the Seestar.
