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.

After integration I get strange horizonal streaks that look like clouds in red or green (I hope it can be seen in the attached screen capture).
I took 50X35'' subs of M81 in a bortle 9 location using Fujifilm X-T20.
your help is much appreciated!

@ofergol Streaks like that are called walking noise and get caused by small movements of the camera with respect to the stars during imaging. The movements are too small to cause oval stars on each sub but large enough to cause these streaks when all subs are combined. Dithering over a large enough amount of pixels every 2 to 5 subs when imaging will solve this.
