Hi all,

the original size of each VIRCAM@VISTA fits is 2048x2048 px. See http://www.eso.org/sci/facilities/paran ... rcam/inst/
But these became 8x2048 px after splitting.

hi oleg,

you have to uncompress them first, using fpack/funpack, available here:

Yes, you are right! :)

Maybe add a warning to THELI for such cases?... :)))
