Harry wrote:Great, but your mount position is not matching LapTimer expectation Please have a look into illustration #4 in Quick Reference in the app. I assume the acceleration is not recorded because of this. Please reset acceleration handling to Automatic first (Settings). You can recalculate acceleration for your fast lap as follows: Lap List ‣ select fast lap ‣ Recalculate ‣ Acceleration.

I had the same problem this weekend with acceleration not recording. That's never happened before. Something about updating to 20.0.17 reset something in the accelerometer calibration. I was able to get things working again by going to the acceleration display starting the calibration process, forcing the calibration and then locking it.

Please send a Contact mail from within LapTimer (to Harry@gps-laptimer.de). Maybe I can see something in the System.log attached.

My first try in april with a iPhone5, Hitcase & xgps1600 driving a 125ccm shift kart in kerpen, germany. I locked the focus of the internal cam, but it seems that made things worse. Trackmap is my own, the official one wasn't released back then.

But then I don't see anything anymore
It was ok in the morning so maybe the reception was just generally worse in the afternoon sessions.

Very cool. Was that a helmet camera?

No, chest iphone5 cam, mounted via http://store.hitcase.com/chestr-mount.html

And another one. Sadly I have no idea how that compares in the 200 hp class.

Hi,
I would like you to show my newest lap on the NOS, recorded on the 06.09.2016.
I used:
- Samsung Galaxy S7 camera
- SkyPro XGPS160 and
- OBD Link MX

My car is a 2013 Ford Fiesta ST with 182 HP.

There was a lot of traffic I tried to leave them all behind

No rolling shutter effect, that's great. Is this the standard back cam of the S7 and which Android version do you have installed?

- Harry

Hi Harry,

yes this is the back cam of my S7 (Full HD - 60 fps (<- this is what I choosed in my camera settings). The quality of the original video (without the overlay) looks a little bit better.
First I did the laptimer overlay integration by the hardware. But the video just looked very bad. Then I choosed 'Force Software Encoding' under the expert settings. Of course it took a while, but the viedo with overlay looks pretty good now. The file is 5,63 GB.

When I checked the details of this file (with MS windows), it tells my that this video has 30 fps. Do I benefit from the setting FHD 60fps? Or does this not matter?

The Android version is 6.0.1
