Improved internal memory configuration (lower ! memory usage), fixed beta45 startup issue, fixed Set Save Directory & 2-panel mosaics.
May 27 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta45 has been released !
Fully Multi-Threaded LNC, many improvements for the registration engine, platform upgrade, and further tuning of internal memory consumption and memory release back to OS.

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.
I'm doing nothing different as I was doing before 4 months ago, where everything worked...
I created all master calibration frames with 1.082 or 1.083beta1. Then I press calibrate, then normalize and checked every frame. Then Integrate. All default settings.
But the strange thing is that all single session comes out perfect.
If you are so kind to check my files, I can upload to you some frames.
Thanks

Edit: I rerun everything with exact the same settings and files, and now is ok...
mmmhhhh. so strange and weird...
Could you please have a quick look at my files? Because it will happen for sure in the future...
Your data in terms of sky background and dispersion values shows a very weird pattern... I can not really understand it. There might be an issue here with the capture software or the camera somehow or maybe a filter was changed all of a sudden leading to this odd pattern.
If I make an analytical graph of your sky background values, it is shown clearly that on frame 12, where the 2nd session begins, it is much less dark which time can explain, but then later on at frame 21, it is much less dark allthough the according to the time when the exposure was shot it should be darker..
Any ideas about what happened in the 2nd session with your gear and exposures?
If you do encounter the issue that you had, please try to find step by step the way so it fails each time and produces the error. Then i would be able to solve it/explain it for sure 😉

Yes, I noticed this weird thing too...
Nothing particular happened. I think that moon makes the difference in the 1 session.
The fact that the target went down near the horizon where there is all lighr pollution from my city bortle 8 sky, for me is the other clue to interpret the strange pattern of the 2nd session...
