Hi guys...
I recently loaded 256 Lum frames of M31 (30 sec subs) into APP together with master dark, master flat, master bias and BMP. When star analyses was completed, the software stopps... not possible to continue. I tried to increase CPU to 12 and restarted the PC, but same result. Could it be the number of frames that is too high??

Not to be expected no, but it just stopped you say, it really didn't have any activity anymore that you could notice from the system? How much memory does your system have?
In the mean time you can always give it a go with just 50 frames of course.
Hi...
Many thanks for your suggestions. My system is 32Gb memory. I tried with 30 frames and that worked fine.... I guess this means that it is the system that limits the number of frames that can be processed in one batch. I shall have to split the bunch of frames in smaller batches containing ~50 frames or so...

Hi again...
Forgot to say that I was running ver 1.079, but have just upgraded to ver. 1.082 and yes the program stopped completely and could not be accessed. I had to use Task manager to shut it down (although other programs ran normally)...

With 32GB that shouldn't be a problem though. I'm wondering if it indeed was stopped, maybe there was a dialog behind a window that required attention for instance? I would suggest to try again, and otherwise you can make integrations of 50-ish indeed (to get the data divided nicely) and load those results as lights again and integrate them.

Ok, well I would try it again then as that should work I think.
