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. Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hi there
Trying to stitch a 9 panel mosaic (447 light frames). Following Sara's tutorial on this site. So far taken 14hours and only 59% registered. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong?!
Running MacBook Pro 2.3GHz i7 with 16GB Ram.
Thanks in advance
Hi Matt,
This is normal mostly because all 447 frames are checked for overlapping areas etc in the registration phase. I would advise to stack all 9 panels individually and then create the mosaic from the 9 stacked panels.
HTH, Wouter

I agree with Wouter. I had a similar experience trying to make a 4 panel mosaic by loading all the subs and hitting integrate. This is not the most efficient and quick way to do it. Whilst I had other issues with APP’s outputs you might find Mabula’s concise guidance on mosaic workflow here helpful.

Yep, making panels first is the best and might even produce better results as the statistics become extremely complicated when doing this from all separate frames.
