Hi,
I have an issue with dithering in PHD2:

The only thing that changed is the use of the Ekos scheduler to drive my job. Before I used to directly launch the job after launching focus, slew and guiding by myself, without using the scheduler at all. I wanted to try with the scheduler for once, it worked perfectly, including guiding... except for that dither issue.
Ekos logs at same time give me this:

I restarted Kstars/Ekos, Indy and PHD2 but it didn't solve the issue.
What could have happened? Can this be linked to the scheduler??
Thanks,
Luis
