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.
Can not create a good BPM map with 1.049. I have tested the creation of a BPM map with versions 1.047 and 1.049 and the 1.049 BPM method has a problem. I used the same 3 flats and darks in the example. The BPM creation process in 1.049 does not respond to changes in settings and the result does not look right at all.
Thank you Kees,
Can you send me some of your darks so I can have a thorough look? I guess 5 darks would be enough for testing.
I suspect the bad columns aren't detected?
Would be good moment for me to include accurate hot and defect column detection into the BPM creation.
Mabula
I have uploaded 5 darks to our shared Dropbox folder.
Thank you Kees,
I'll work on this right now 😉 thank you for reporting this.
These are darks from today, can you send me a recent light frame as well, so I can test the BPM's efficiency?
Mabula
OK, i have uploaded a recent light frame.
Great thank you Kees 😉
Yes, problem is located and solved. Statistics wasn't set to a robust method, now MRS gaussian noise is used which is very robust.
I am currently working on bad column detection to improve these structures in the BPM as well. I'll create a new APP soon with this as well probably...
