Can no longer analyze stars on my HA integrations for registering them.
Hi Mabula, everything appears to be working fine now with the star analyse feature using my ZWO294MC Pro on Windows 10 Pro x64. Thank you for the incredibly quick response. This was my first time using APP and the results I have achieved are fantastic, once again thank you!
Hello Mabula, I have also tested the new beta. I also try integrating DSLR Canon Eos 6D and ZWO ASI 294MC Pro OSC with RGB frames and Ha frames. Still have problems with the registration. Number of stars increase in analysis Stars brought nothing, only with an increase of the Scale Stop in 4 I was able to successfully register all frames. When normalizing always come error messages and aborts the action. Try now to integrate the sessions individually.

Please send me the dataset and I will have a proper look 😉 so I will know why it gives you problems and give you feedback on it.
Increasing scale stop is simply sometimes necessary, but I will try to make that much more automatic (so it adjusts internally) as well. So the registration just works.
An error in normalizing should not occur, so I really need to see that. Can you send the relevant data to support@astropixelprocessor.com using wetransfer.com or dropbox ?
Hello Mabula, I have uploaded all the data now. There are a total of 8 sessions + master data. I was able to integrate the RGB and Ha data seperately. I originally wanted to register the Ha Frames with an RGB reference frame, but that did not work out. Seperat the Ha data regstrieren, worked. Now I do not really know. I think the RGB integration split into R-G-B channels and then combine with the Ha. In the Combine Tool. 🤔

@minusman, Simplest way is to process the monochrom and RGB/OSC camera data separately. Then split the RGB integration and register + normalize this with your Ha data.
To be able to process RGB and monochrome data all in one go and end up with both the RGB data and monochrome data needs some internal adjustments/upgrades. I have written it on my todo list.
Hello Mabula, I know now why I had registration problems. Many frames had little overlap with respect to the reference frame. I set the star analysis to 3000 and set the scale stop to 10 when registering. Everything went well until integration. I then split the resulting RGB image and regrouped it with the Ha integration and processed the individual channels in combine RGB.
