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.

How to stop APP stripping FITS headers?

When trying to get Pixinsight to do a photometric color calibration on an image I had stacked with APP, I noticed that the "acquire from image" option does not work. This is because APP strips the FITS header info (in this case RA and Dec) which was originally in the light frames.

Is there an option to prevent APP doing this?

Thanks

The integrated result will have less data indeed, this is because some of it changes per frame, however Mabula will add more information to the result specifically to solve things like this indeed.

Thanks for replying. 

I'm not quite sure I understand what you're saying though. I'm not sure what 'Mabula' means here. Are you referring to a future release of the software which will not strip out FITS header data?

Mabula is the name of the developer. 🙂 So,yes in a future release things like this will be addressed.
