Hi Harry,

Why does it seem the displayed time is delayed by 1-2 seconds. I noticed this on my video below. When I cross the finish line, the time shown has a lag compared to the actual time displayed above the video.

Thanks, Anthony

In comparison to my vboxsport laptimer on this video. It displays the lap time perfectly in sync when I cross the start / finish line.

Not sure how the videos are related to your question?

In case you are asking why videos started automatically by LapTimer are 1 to 2 seconds late for the first lap - that'a due to the cam's startup time after triggering. While data is available for the full lap, video will miss this time in the beginning.

As videos are session length, you will not see this effect for the second and following laps. To work around the missing section for the first lap, start recording manually in the pits - before leaving.
