PixInsight Modules

This page describes the StarNet and DeepSNR PixInsight modules: which repository to add, what changed in the current backend/runtime setup, and where the shared installation instructions live.

Legacy PixInsight module files

These archives preserve the final TensorFlow-era PixInsight module packages and the shared TensorFlow runtime files used by older manual installs.

Legacy TensorFlow-era PixInsight files are not recommended for new installs and are provided without support. Use the current PixInsight repositories unless you specifically need an older TensorFlow-based setup.

StarNet2 PixInsight modules

Final TensorFlow-era StarNet2 module packages. These are manual archive files, not active PixInsight repository feeds.
