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.
For LRGB O3 we do not have a preset in the tool. I would suggest that you use a formula that is close to this like LRGBHOO, and load the L,R,G,B, O3 stacks and click on calculate. Then tweak the provided formula to have the O3 signal show nicely combined with the other channels.
To be clear, there is no such thing as the best way here, really, it depends greatly on the quality of your data and the object itself to say what a good formula would be to get a nice looking composite 😉 You need to play with the formula and be a bit creative as well here.
Thanks, i try it, and im think it goes in the right direction. See the result:
I have two questions:
1. I stacked with the standard settings. I only change the LNC degrees and literations, and also increase the MBB to 10% because the data ist from several nights. But why i get the trails from the satellites?
2. The stars have sometimes a little bit green borders. Can i avoid this with a setting in the stacking process?

1) how many frames did you stack, if it is not too many, you might need to disable the automatic integration and set it either median or average and set outlier rejection parameters yourself 😉
2) The green borders would be caused by the green data having less focus maybe? Maybe you can run the green data in the star reducer and reduce their size to 90% and see if that improves things?
I gutes this comes from the RGB data, because for only the colour, i take maybe 30-40 shots per channel. O3 and luminance are more. So i can Set this settings only for rgb?
