Calculate & Setup Dithering In PHD2 & NINA

Dithering causes a mount to make tiny random movements of only a few pixels, allowing stacking software to compensate for hot and cold pixels in final stacking as well as correct for fixed pattern noise and walking noise. It is an extremely powerful image improvement technique, and you should never shoot without dithering.  This video covers how to setup dithering in NINA and PHD2, and how to calculate just how much you need to dither.
