Problem with creating light pollution model

Thanks for letting us know, I currently have no data to really test that, but I guess Mabula (@mabula-admin) does.

Hi, I have the same problem. If you load this file  removed link  into the light pollution tool, APP hangs. I hope this helps. regards, Richard

Oops, the forum removed the link to the problematic file. Here it is again but split up:

I just loaded it in and first of all... that's one fine result you have there! And indeed, I can re-create the issue I think (@mabula-admin), it hangs at "neutralising background", it doesn't crash just seems to get stuck there.

Hi Ruud @pol75rex , Richard @richardejmbtinternet-com and Vincent @vincent-mod,

Thank you for sharing this bug. I have downloaded Richard's file and I see the problem. I will work to have this fixed in APP's next release.

Kind regards,

Mabula

Hi Ruud @pol75rex , Richard @richardejmbtinternet-com and Vincent @vincent-mod,

I have located the root cause of this bug and fixed it 😉 so it should work properly in APP 1.069.

https://www.astropixelprocessor.com/community/release-information/astro-pixel-processor-1-069-preparing-next-release/

• FIXED, BACKGROUND NEUTRALIZATION algorithm, a bug was fixed which caused APP to enter a never ending loop which caused APP to stall. The bug manifested itself only on images with particular image dimensions and was described here: https://www.astropixelprocessor.com/community/main-forum/problem-with-creating-light-pollution-model/ . The Calibrate Background and Remove Light Pollution tools always start with a first preview of the data using Background Neutralization. So on certain light frames/integrations, the tools would have entered a never ending loop.

Kind regards,

Mabula

Thanks for the fix Mabula!

Hello Mabula,

Thanks for your quick response.

Looking forward using 1.069.

Best, Ruud
