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.
Hi,Â
I have prepared the setup which is both working at 500mm and "looking" at the same object. One telescope is equipped with Nikon D5100 OSC camera, and the second one is equipped with the debayerized (mono) Nikon D5100.Â
The OSC DSLR will always acquire RGB frames and the mono one will be equipped with narrowband filters or the luminance filter.Â
The question is - is it possible to properly integrate the frames during one process in APP?Â
The thing is that when I process the OSC data, I am choosing the default AAD demosaic algorithm and with the debayerized DSLR I have to choose no interpolation method. Can you tell me if there is possibility to set the metod for the frames set in one stacking process?
How shall I proceed to get the satisfactory results in any way?
Additionally - when combining OSC and narrowband data, shall I split channels for some reason or shall I use combine RGB using the output RGB stack?Â
Thank you and best regards.Â
So yes, for combining single channel (narrowband) data with 3-channel (RGB) data, you need to make the RGB data single channel. You do this by calibrating your RGB data and processing that in the normal way, then loading in the result again and going to tab 2, where you select "split channels" all the way down.
You process your narrowband data as well and then you should have integrated narrowband data and R, G and B frames. Restart APP, load all those in again and properly assign them. Then you go to register and normalize your data, in tab 5, you select to "save normalized frames". Now these then will be the frames you can combine in the "combine RGB" tool in tab 9.
We do want to make this process easier. 🙂

Â
Is this still the correct method.
I went to calibration and did split channels and now I have FITS for Red Blue and Green.
Â
So when I get my Ha data, I should load all the data like I would do normal RGBHa data and then go till the normalize step?
Â
Yes, you can load those in again as narrowband lights and normalize them to each other, save the normalized frames and then combine in RGBCombine.
