Harry's GPS Suite Forum

Hello!

Thank you for your help in advance. I recently visited Buttonwillow this past weekend and recorded all my lap data using this app. All of the lap data was capture very well in app.

I was able to export the data to my email address so that I can overlay it onto my captured gopro footage using Race Render 3. My first session exported flawlessly I believe (I will need to review the video fully). However for my last session (the session I also set my personal best lap), the exported data messed up. When exporting the session, the app knew 8 laps were being exported. But only 6 show up in my video overlay. Also, 2 of the laps in the video overlay seem to have merged into 1 and and says that I did a lap in 4 minutes. On average, each lap for me was around 2:15 seconds. Ironically, this screw up happens on the lap I set my personal best!

No 4 minute lap was ever recorded in the app, so I'm pretty confused as to why this appears in the video overlay when I import the .gpx file into race render.

I hope you can help me with this! Thanks again!

Hi,

RR is not a supported product - I cannot help too much here. When exporting data to .gpx, LapTimer generates a continuous stream of positions, just like a logger does. It is up the the renderer to convert the stream into individual laps.

Thanks! Do you have a software you can recommend to me to use? I'm currently using a Macbook Pro

The prime product to overlay video is LapTimer itself (Petrolhead and GrandPrix). The two desktop renders I exchange data formats regularly are TrackVision and DashWare. I cannot comment too much on these applications either, but at least the format (CSV) is verified. None of these products are MacOS applications but need to be executed in a virtual Windows environment.
