Harry's GPS Suite Forum

Hi Harry,

Thanks for an amazing app, helps a lot to improve on the track.

iPhone recording and overlaying works just fine to monitor your progress and showoff.

However, in case higher quality of video footage and sound than iPhone provides is required, there are some difficulties. Yes, I know, I can shoot video with GoPro, overlay lap data on my iPhone and then play with it on my Mac. However, it is not entirely convenient due to the fact that it is time consuming and most importantly, it is a massive pain in various inappropriate places to sync data and actual video, especially if you shoot with 2-3 GoPro's and sound recorder and you want dashboard to be present on each video before you start making a footage. My suggestion is quite simple. Can your app, without shooting actual video, produce a video-file containing only sound and dashboard (some kind of nice looking horizontal bar) to place on the existing video-files? Sound will make synching picture and data easy since by producing some sharp noise (e.g. clap, horn) sound spike will be recorded on all devices and it will be very easy to sync dashboard-data with video and audio files from other devices and, then simply delete audio you don't need. This will give a lot more freedom in editing videos.

Thanks and all the best,
Roman

I have this request on my list for some time already. The reason I have not prioritized this against (the hundreds of) other requests is there are solutions available to do it with external overlay software already. LapTimer comes with CSV export matching TrackVision's and Dashware's requirements. They can be used to accomplish most of what LapTimer does (except POI inserts, speed min max inserts, and reference lap video comparison).
