Hello, I have downloaded the demo pro version because I need to use it with the tikee camera timelapse (which is using 2 cameras to create a 220° panoramic images).
 I found here a template for the Tikee. It works...

I did a test with batch, but found that it is not working great on the middle of the image.
See the example, in the center background... it's moving. not professional...

Is it a PTGui limitation or did I make something Wrong ? 

I can't attach the video, so here is the sample link : 

Thanks for your help !

Disable "Find Optimum Seam" in the right side menu Blending section.

Your images do not align properly. In fact images of two cameras side by
side never align properly, since there always is parallax.

"Find Optimum Seam" tries to rout the seam between two image through
areas with least difference. These areas might change in a timelaps due
to different lighting, moving objects etc. Hence you see more of one
image in one pair and more of the other in another one, which appears as
flicker or movement in the video.

Disabling this option will always use a seam in the same place without
respect to image content.

Thanks for your answer, I'm looking for this Blending section and can't find it. Can't find anything "Find Optimum Seam".
Can you make me a screen shot ? 
Sorry...

The blending option is on the fly-out menu on the Panorama Editor window.  You may need to click the "<" icon in the top right-hand corner to pull it out.

I can say it is NOT working... now PTGui Quit when launching the Batch...
On my side it looks so simple, only 2 images to stitch, but look definitely impossible...
I was able to do it smoothly with the very old AutoPano 3.0 (but too slow now)...

I'm Stuck...

Problem seems to come from M1 apple chip, as it works on Intel chip (MacBook Pro). Yes ? No ?

Kind regards,

It seems to work now. I don't know what happen. I bought the full licence as Erik gave me the solution ;-) 
It looks like I get what I was waiting for !
Thanks for your work
