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.
Hi all,
I am using a dual setup with a ZWO294mc (which needs to force the RGGB pattern under 0 raw/fits) and a QHY294MM (which doesn't need that),
What do I have to use under 0 raw/fits to integrate both cam's frames together?
TIA and CS
Mike
In that case I would process them separately and then save the calibrated frames. Those calibrated frames can then be loaded in together. If that doesn't work, please let me know.
Adding to what Vincent wrote: force bayer only is needed if APP cannot determine itself that the OSC frames need debayering. APP will determine that based on the FITS header so if the bayer pattern is in there then you do no need to force bayer.
Note that if you load both OSC and mono frames then force bayer should not be enabled since then APP will think that the mono frames are OSC as well. So if you load all frames and process them and you see that APP cannot determine that the OSC lights need debayering, then you need to process them separated from the mono frames and force bayer on the OSC data.
@wvreeven
Thanks, that was my thought, too.
Not sure if the FITS header work, but I will try it.

@vincent-mod
Thank you Vincent. That also answers my following question about registration 😉 If I use all the different but calibrated files, they will register during the processing!
