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.
So there are two features WBPP/PI has that Astro Pixel Processor needs to become my default image processing software and that is groups where I can load my data from both my cameras and WBPP then stacks separately and loading a directory of files using either data from the FITS header or name of the file to sort out the lights, darks, bias, flats, and dark flats. The debayer and LNC algorithms in APP are better, but it very time consuming to stack one data set at a time.Â
Yes, this is on our todo-list if I'm not mistaken. Not something we will have in beta 2 though.
