The author of AutoStakkert, Emil Kraaikamp, still actively supports AS!3 and new versions come out periodically. There is also an AutoStakkert Yahoo Group you can join. Feel free to ask a question there or create a new post on the forum. You can read through it and find lots of helpful advice. There you can find this long running thread dedicated to AutoStakkert. There is a Solar System Imaging & Processing forum on Cloudy Nights. If you need help with AutoStakkert there are plenty of options. The wavelet processing capability of RegiStax 6 is amazing.
Many people then use RegiStax for the processing step and possibly other image processing software as well.
Most everyone doing planetary imaging will recommend that you use AS!3 for stacking. Then came AutoStakkert which is easier to learn and does a better job at stacking but that is all it does. RegiStax will do both the stacking and processing steps. In the beginning there was only RegiStax. The stacking software will discard the low quality frames in your movie file and align the remaining images and more or less take the average of them. For stacking software there are two popular choices: RegiStax 6 and AutoStakkert!3 (aka AS!3).
