It did take a long time to have the work finished on this and it will have a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration. We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming weeks...
Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Version 2.0 Stalls when Processing One Shot Color Imagers on iTelescope.net
This is a reprint of a discord msg left on the iTelescope Discord Server to their staff. Â Hope this can be of help here.
"Thought this might be of interest. I have downloaded the new beta release of APP and have found that it stalls and or fails to process the Color images on T02, T68, (did not try T69). Starts slowing down early but stalls completely on integration. Admittedly I have a bare bones iMac (see attachment) was never able to multitask on 1.083.2 but it made it through. I have to reload 1.083.2 to process color images. Hope this helps, don't have a contact email for Mabula so maybe you can pass this on. Hope this Helps"

Thx for the quick response, by mutlitasking I mean I need to quit all other tasks Safari, Pages, etc to stop APP from slowing down or stopping with some images when using 1.083.2 or previous versions, even that does not help with 2.0. Â At this time I am having the issue with just the color camera images as I said, haven't done much else in LRGB or SHO yet.Â
These are standard iTelescope calibrated image files for T02 and T68, i.e.
