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.
Hello,
maybe my question was in the wrong forum, but does APP support inbetween the real unbinned mode of an QHY294C / IMX294 (47MP Mode) ?
I know there was a post one year ago regarding this issue but I have seen that it was never really answered. Is/was there any changing in the last year ?
I think a lot of 294-users are interested in answering this question too.
best regards
Werner
For sure the APP team would have a definitive answer, but i think it would not matter since the FIT file would be no different to any other, just a larger file size compared to the binned out of the box ASI294 subs. I would imagine APP will process a series of those subs just like any other.
Hi Colm,Â
The unbinned Bayer pattern of a quad binned 294 is complete different from all other patterns, it's RRRRGGGGGGGGBBBB. I'm not sure if the camera driver interpolates this in RGGB. One year ago it was not a function of the driver and here was a discussion if APP can do this. I have sold my 294c some times ago but I plan to buy it again and now I want to know if I can use this mode today. I found no info if now implemented in driver or not. Also I got no answer from QHY. Does anyone know it?

Hi Werner @wstumpferlgmx-de,
Thank you for posting this. I am not aware of how such a unbinned Bayer Pattern would work? If is is RRRRGGGGGGGGBBBB it is by definition not even a Bayer pattern I think.
Best way to answer this is to send me a couple of frames of such a unbinned mode of an QHY294C / IMX294 (47MP Mode) camera sensor. Then I can check how it works and if we can support it, or already do.
You can use the upload instructions on the top right of our forum and then let me know that you have uploaded it 😉
