Beta Video Analysis

Just watched the recording of the live stream. The video feature looks really nice (hopefully a little better than the Race Render option I've tried before). I have a formula car with a RaceCapture Pro mk2, android phone dash and drift camera. The rcp is setup to start logging when I exceed 40 mph (...

Re: Recalculate laps using a different track map

I installed and tried with the 2.4.0 version (on PC), but same results (it just hung saying loading session).

If I try to attach the log here, it says it is too big (unzipped is 3.7M and zipped is 938K).

Recalculate laps using a different track map

I was at VIR for the SCCA runoffs last week and the first session I went out on, RCP used the wrong track map (patriot course instead of full course), so my data is all just 1 long lap. Is there a way to switch the track map and recalculate laps based on the new setting? I'm using a RaceCapturePro m...

Recalculate laps not working for bad gps data

My RaceCapturePro mk2 has been shifting gps lat/long and not recognizing laps for a while (it's been worse some places and better others). I was looking forward to the new recalculate laps feature in 2.2.0, but it doesn't seem to work for my data. When I do recalculate on recent data (Indianapolis M...

Based on a post in a different thread, I guess this question is answered... The config file that you save from the app has more stuff (dash layouts and popup alert settings). However, the settings that are saved on the race capture (in my case a rcp mk2) do not have those extra config settings, so j...

Alerts not saved in config?

I just upgraded my RaceCapture/Pro mk2 to 2.15.1 and my dash (android phone) to 1.14.6 I had configured some alerts on my laptop, but they didn't seem to get saved in the config and transferred to the phone/dash after I upgraded that and synced with the RCP. I think the setting to save data in the a...

I run a race capture pro mk2 with the bluetooth to android cell phone (I just use an old cell phone, it just can't be too old since the app doesn't run on really old phones). I have a formula car and just mounted the phone over the dash (I tried putting it on the steering wheel, but couldn't see it ...

Other than the extra effort to configure things with virtual channels, what is wrong with using virtual channels to convert to metric?

Is it a memory or performance thing, or just that you don't want to write a simple script and switch the dash to use them?

I'm curious if I can use smoothing instead of the current RPM filter I have.

My raw RPMs fluctuate wildly and the current filter I have (throws out both low and high values) only helps a little.

Interesting questions, hopefully you get a reply about memory usage and how much the optimizer helps. Looking at the script, I suspect the printlns adds overhead that you can probably live without. I doubt the ones that it only does once matter, but there is one in sendCAN that would print many time...

I'm a little worried about overheating if I put it in a watertight enclosure. How hot does the rcp box get (I have it powered with 12 volt, and it runs bluetooth and gps but not wifi). In general, it'd be nice for the lua script to be able to send alerts/messages to the dash that pop up like the pit...

Missing SD card or logging error notifications support?

Will the new (upcoming) alerts allow for an alert when there is no sd card? I have a racecapture/pro mk2 in an open wheel formula car that isn't "water tight", even in the cockpit where the rcp is mounted. A friend I race with also has a similar setup. I raced a week ago and it was raining...

Add a stop lap timing feature

Please add a (big) button to tell the app to stop timing/logging. I raced at Hallett over the weekend, and you pull off at the end of lap before the timing loop. I still have trouble getting the menu to quit the app (because the menu button is so small in the upper left corner of the screen it doesn...

Can we just delete the datastore.sq3 file to reset all the sensor names and make sure there aren't any duplicate names (ignoring case) in our current configs? Is there a better way to edit/cleanup the datastore?
