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.
This is probably a simple fix but this is my first session with processing narrowband.
Veil Nebula. L-Enhance. Processed extract Ha and extract OIII. I’ve combined in the combine RGB tab and assigned Ha to Red, O3 to green and blue. After calculating I get a decent image but large cyan/turquoise cast on the image I can’t seem to normalize. Where do I go from here? Thank you!
Also, is there really that big of a difference between splitting and combining channels vs just processing all the data taken w/ L enhance as you would with no filter?
@nsblifer For what it's worth, I actually processed my L-eXtreme data using the Ha-OIII Color algorithm on tab 0 and it turned out fairly well.
Splitting the channels I'm sure gives you a lot more flexibility but you could try the "easy way" and decide if you really want to go down the channel splitting path.
