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.

The ASI183MC (like many) has a fair amount of amp glow that shows in the darks.  I tried making a Bad Pixel Map using 30 Darks and 30 Flats, and the BPM clearly had most of that amp glow marked as hot pixels.  I used the default value of 3% hot pixels, and 10% of median for cold.  

That doesn't seem right...  Any ideas how to do that correctly?

Hi David

Same camera here. I leave BPM setting on automatic and have no problem with getting a clean pixel image.
You should not get any amp glow showing in your BPM - IMO
Did you use only darks and flats, not darkflats? I would try to incorporate darkflats and see what result you get.

Cheers
Georg

Even though that does show up in the BPM, I don't think it's an issue (as far as I know..), a BPM never degrades your data, so it won't correct pixels that are not showing up in your lights basically.
