I am running APP on a Mac Pro 2009 with Catalina. Power saving is on 3 hrs for system and monitor. But when the screensavers kicks in it seems that processing (integration) is halted to resume on re-activating the screen.
Is this correct?
@donald It is correct that the screensaver stops APP. This is a known issue and Mabula has been looking for a solution for quite some time now. For now, please disable the screensaver before starting processing with APP.
Ah ok. APP is now analysing the light frames in the integration process but this continues as I activate the power saving for the screen.
Update: no it does not. It halts after some time, it does not seem directly.
quite confusing, now trying no screensaver but powersave on sreen... let's see what that does...
Ok that works. The process goes on when you activate power save after deactivating screen save!
So that's what the problem is! I have been wondering what triggered the odd "slowdowns" I have seen at times. I didn't consider it being a screensaver issue! Glad I read this thread...
