Mar 28 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 will be released in 7 days.
It did take a long time to have the work finished on this and it will have a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration. We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming weeks...
Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
Hi Can someone help i have a very strange effect on my light files when i load them in the Pixelprocessor see attached image and the light file. If i load the fit file in to say ASIfitview they look fine image is level in RGB and looks ok but if i load them in to Pixelprocessor the green is shifted left and has a large effect on the final processed image.

I think APP shows the actual raw result and maybe the other viewer is correcting a bit. What happens when you select “neutralize background” on the right there? This will not change the data on disk, but you can work with that and in the end save the file as seen to disk.
Hi Vincent
Thanks for the tip I will give it a go, i forgot i turned it off as i was trying startools and had to turn both background and stretch off.
