Hi,
I just finished processing OIII and SII files from this nights session and I run into some problem.
I used Dark frames I gathered the previous night and after integration both the OIII and SII channel showed no data.
After a second try OIII still stayed dark and SII came out like this:

I had some OIII data from the previous night and once I added it APP seemed to process this data correctly but then ignored the data from the following session.
Multi Session processing is selected and I correctly assigned the frames to the sessions.
I didn't change anything in my imaging setup between the two sessions and never had a problem in previous runs, at first I thought it maybe didn't apply the dark frames but it seems like APP did do something to the light frames and I have no idea what could cause this.
Edit:
After stacking only my light frames without any calibration frames I get an image, so definitely a problem with the calibration frames coming from another session.
Ah crosses, I've seen that weird thing before a long time ago. So it only happens with your latest darks? If that's the case there might have been a setting wrong when you took those. Check offset etc.
I did shoot another batch of darks a day later and tried them.
Same problem.
I'm at the point where I suspect there's a problem with at least some of my light frames. I did try to stack them with DSS but I get the same result so I'm pretty sure the problem has something to do with my data.
Once I'm able to get some new images I'll report back if I was able to get rid of this.
Yeah, unfortunately I can't remember what caused this specifically (which is why I write this kind of stuff down now 😉 ). If the issue remains I'd like to have a look at the data as well.
