For most of the time I've been using Stellarmate OS, I've had my Focus option to auto-select star and to use subframes.
I've been playing with full field view and using the ring mask option (15/50) the last few nights. It seems to give a little sharper stars. Will be comparing the HFR between the two different processes shortly.. I honestly didn't think to keep up with the differences.

One nice thing about the ring mask is you can exclude (fairly easily) the center area of your target from being the center of attention.
This is M 51, and as you can see, in my setup it's not even in the running for focusing concern.
