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,
I image with the ASIAir Plus, which shows me the average ADU of each image directly after they've been taken. This is really helpful to me when deciding which subs to keep and which to trash, as sometimes it's hard to visually compare a perfectly clean sub to a sub that has some very thin cloud cover.
The problem is, the ASIAir only shows avg ADU value for the last sub that's been taken, and there's no way to save this information for later, other than monitoring the screen and writing it down after each sub is completed.
Is there a way to sort by avg ADU value in APP? This would save me a ton of time when sorting through my subs, and would help make sure that no subs make the cut that shouldn't cut it.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Jeff
I see this from another post:
"Adding to this, after APP has performed step 5, Normalize, you can sort the frames by sky background and create an analytical chart of the sky background. You can then easily identify the frames with clouds and discart those."
I think this is what I'm looking for. Does it matter what settings I use for normalization? I usually don't check "neutralize background". Does that matter?
Also, do I sort by "Background"?
Thanks!
Jeff
@jeffreyhorne Hi Jeff, in general you can leave all APP settings to their default values and APP will figure out what to do. Why would you disable "neutralize background"? And yes, sort by "Background".
@wvreeven the tooltip says that automatically neutralizing the background might remove some faint nebulosity, so I neutralize it manually using the light pollution tool.Â
Thanks!
Jeff
