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.
Hello,
I have the following subframes taken with a Nikon D5300 cooled and modded
-18 LIGHTs Halpha of 1600 ISO and 600 with FLATS , DARKS and FLATS
- 9 LIGHTs Halpha of 200 ISO and 600 seconds with FLATS , DARKS and No FLATS
How should I stack them?
Thank you
Thank you for your question and welcome to the forum 😉
Best is to first calibrate the 2 sets separately and save them in 2) calibrate. Make sure calibration is working nicely and I suggest to make a Bad Pixel Map if you haven't done so already.

Then if you have correctly calibrated both sets of frames, then simply load all of the the calibrated light frames and process starting from 3) Analyse Stars.
Let me know if this helps and if you have any other question.
Kind regards,
Mabula
Thank you very much Mabula!
Well, finally I managed merge all my data from the two series, 200 ISO + 1600ISO.
I very happy with your software: the result is better than what I´ve reached with Pixinsight.
And the best is that the simplicity: I just load directly ALL my LIGHTS, DARKS, FLATS and BIASS from the two series.
Maybe I should have listenning to your advice about the proper workflow, but anyway this is the result without any post-processing
Excellent eldoctorbacterio,
That looks great and very smooth 😉
Cheers,
Mabula
