Hi John, What settings did you use? Have not had luck with this version and I don't know when the stable one will be released!

The Star reducer keeps creating these strange artifacts for me.  I am not sure why.  Even with just the most minor adjustment these occur.

Same here, star reduction never worked for me, I gave up, but still waiting on the stable version. There is really nothing but trouble in the beta version. 

Thank you

Sorry to read that you are experiencing troubles with the latest beta version but surely this statement is too strong.

Very sorry!

Truth is bitter! It is beta after all.

Hopefully, the stable version solves all these problems, although I don't know what was meant by "soon after"!

 Try lowering the area radius slider with small steps at a time, until the artifacts disappear. That works for me..

Thanks John, 

APP is very slow and the options to change are not limited,  so, practically,  very difficult to test.

Example,  yesterday I processed same data with siril and app, 15 minutes on siril and 3 hours on app!

Thank you, 

Jay

@zurgany Once again sorry for your troubles. Mabula is aware that there are issues with the star reducer and is working on a fix.
