Trackmaster v4.5 and BT GPS Service 2.0 released!
10/11/11 9:16 PM
Trackmaster v4.5 includes bug fixes and new features. Here is an overview of the new features:

  • Live View is now available on your Trackmaster app. Get real-time positions and data (speed, top speed, lap time, splits) for your racing friends while they are out on track. This is a great way to follow your friends while you are trackside, too. Set up your race group online at MyTrackmaster.com to use Live View.
  • Live View updates have been decreased from every 10 seconds to 5 seconds. This is for Live View on the app and at MyTrackmaster.com.
  • You can now set the bluetooth GPS rate from 1 to 10 Hz under settings (if supported by the GPS). This can be helpful for those with slower phones that can't handle the higher rates or to reduce data.
  • Video data export has been added back to the session list options. Under a session, you can now also export video data for a session or just a lap.
  • List sorting has been further improved to offer ascending and descending sorts. Sorts are persistent.

Thanks!

I note that after having used this and then deleted all the session info, trackmaster is leaving the xxx_video_data.csv files in the phone's Trackmaster/ directory. I suspect they will remain there forever, using up rather a lot of space?

In fact there is quite a lot of old junk in that directory. I've cleaned it up once and now it's back up to 23MB.

EDIT: It is working properly now, not sure what changed...

Version shown on my application info settings still shows version 43, however, and the splash page still says v3.1??

Hi! Love this app.

I just installed whatever the latest version is on Android Market (Says Version 43 on application detail), and when I try to open Trackmaster, the splash screen shows, and then takes me to the android market page for the app. I can click "open" here, but again it just reloads the AM Trackmaster page.

Do I need to alter something on my phone? (Samsung Captivate)

I have a track event this weekend so I am hoping to get this cleared up quickly!

Thanks,

That sounds like a temporary Android Market issue. It should go away.

Android 2.2 Froyo is available for the Samsung Captivate. You'll need to update in order to get the latest features (including Live View and MyTrackmaster.com).

Samsung Captivate's Froyo update now available through Kies

Thank you for improving the session sorting! That was one of my most wanted fixes. No longer will I need to sort though 50 sessions to find my most current runs!

Keep in mind that you can use the Archive option on MyTrackmaster.com to remove the session from your device, but keep it in the cloud at MyTrackmaster.com. That will probably keep your lists a little more manageable.
