With more than 30 years of experience in extraction of eigenmodes from power spectra of solar signals, we are now almost ready to apply this knowledge onto the forecoming missions: COROT and Eddington. However the fitting task differs by 3 orders of magnitude; COROT will be able to get time series of stellar light for some 30 stars, while Eddington will be able to gather such data for about 50000 stars. While for COROT, our current tools can be applied by hand, the case of Eddington is significantly more complex. We are looking forward having automatic fitting procedures that will allow to recover mode parameters for about 90% of the solar-like stars. Unfortunately, about 10% of these stars will require some more delicate attention that will cost time to take care of. We will use the example of the infamous HD 57006, known to be quite evolved with a difficult eigenmode spectrum, to explain how a star can evolve from an easy-to-fit target (90% of the solar-like stars) to a difficult-to-fit (10% of the remaining stars). In the latter case, new techniques for detecting narrow peaks (g-mode like) out of broad peaks (p-mode like) has been devised in the context of the hare-and-hound exercise of COROT. This and other techniques will be used to implement the automatic fitting procedure for the remaining 10% of Eddington solar-like stars.
