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. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Trying to get to grips with APP. Edited a DSLR stacked image, and the saved JPG is less contrasty/saturated than the final edited image showing in APP?Â
Here's a screen shot showing the difference. I've output in the various colour space options but it doesn't make a difference.
Any ideas? Thanks.
Yes, this is due to the JPEG compression. JPEGs are 8-bit, APP can process in 16- or even 32-bit. When saving as a JPEG, the color space gets compressed and the algorithm tries to get as close to the original color value as possible, but there will be a difference. Try saving as a TIFF and compare. This will be big, but you can probably see it has more clarity.
