UPDATE FROM MABULA

I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.

 

Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.

 

APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46.  Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.

Unistellar FITS do not debayer correctly

I am currently using APP 1.083.4 and I had no problems stacking FITS from Unistellar smart telescopes using "Force Bayer/Xtrans CFA" and setting RGGB as pattern (as per Unistellar instructions), but after their latest firmware and app update, if I load such a FITS directly in APP, all I get is a sort of "all green" image without any detail of stars or other celestial objects.

ZWO FITS Viewer is able to debayer such FITS and save them as TIFF files that I can afterwards ingest in APP, but clearly this is impratical for the high number of 4 seconds shots produced by the Unistellar telescopes.

I understand that the first port of call should be Unistellar, but since for them "raw files" are provided as is and without support (stacking in external software and postprocessing is not belonging to what they see as the mainstream business for their telescopes), I would like to know if you can have a look at one such FITS file and see if you can do something about this issue.

Thanks

 

P.S.

Siril is able to correctly open the file.
