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.
That's an effect I've not really seen before. Can you tell me more about your setup and if there was any difference with shooting in Ha and SII? Are you dithering during data acquisition?
Hi, no difference in setup, data acquired using all three filters during same sessions over a period of a few weeks, same PHD2 small dither, etc. Deep Sky Stacker handles the exact same image and callibration set without issues (basic stretch applied):

Ok, would you be able to upload a subset of all data (incl. calibration data) to our server for analysis?
Thank you, I'll have a better look
I noticed that the flats you provided have almost no signal, if you disable stretching it should have a nice signal at approx. 2/3 of the spectrum. Is that a mistake while uploading or actually the case? So I processed without flats or dark-flats. DSS has far simpler algorithms and that may have "helped" in this case, but they still wouldn't be correct flats.
This is the result I then get:
Little bit of post processing:
Thanks for going to the effort to check, I will review my calibration frames and run again, and let you know.
