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.
Hello,
Is there a tutorial or instructions on how to split Ha and OIII from OSC while using a dual band filter?
Thank you
@stephanhamel22 Hi! This is quite simple. Load your lights and calibration frames in tab 1. Then in tab 0 select the Ha - OIII extract Ha algorithm. Then go to tab 6 and click integrate. When done, return to tab 0 and select Ha - OIII extract OIII. Click yes when asked if you want to normalize again and in tab 6 click integrate once more. That’s all.
Thank you for this.
How does that method compare in terms of fina result with extracting RBG from the same fit files?
@stephanhamel22 Mabula has optimized the extraction of the Ha and OIII signals from dual band images so using those algorithms will yield a better SNR than extracting the color channels from RGB integration results.
