[Q] 'creating time' of recorded track

[Christian]

Hi menion,
Yesterday I recorded a track with Locus Pro 3.4.2, non Beta. In Android the time zone is set to +2.
Time stamp of the first track point was 08:08:35. I started running at 10:08.
In track detail page creation time is displayed as 10:08.
So I guess the date written into the track is without concerning of time zone now???
With version of December 2014 the right time was written in the recorded track...

Regards,
Christian

Has anyone similar experiences??

[Menion]

Hmm I just finished one small run and time "created" at tracks details is correct compare to times of single trackpoints.

Version 3.4.2 is quite old, hard to say. Better to test with latest version. There is at least chance, I will fix it ...

[Christian]

Sorry, its my mistake. I use 3.8.2 of course.

Ah, hmm not sure where should problem then.

I'm just today preparing new version, so you'll see in next version. Because I personally do not saw this problem, let's wait on next test ...

[Christian]

Sorry for warming up this thread again.
No changes in any new version.
Newly recorded track: real starting time 08:51. Time of the first trkpt: 06:51.
Its obvious that the time offset its not included. (Only in tracks details page the 'create date' is correct)
Menion, can you please change this? Because its important to have a real time to compare and plan trips.

Thanx in advance,
Christian

Hello Christian,

hmm weird here is, that Locus do not set any times for recorded trackpoints. Anyway this issue looks for me a quite close to this issue http://forum.locusmap.eu/index.php?topic=4643.msg37524#msg37524 . I'll in next version just add simple function, that set to all recorded points current time value of device. So check it please in next version, thanks for patience.

No changes in 3.9.3
May be wrong time value is in the export function. Thats the only time i see when i look with an editor inside the gpx.
Correct time is display in track detail page as before.

Hello Christian,

please check this description: http://www.topografix.com/gpx_manual.asp#time ... times in GPX should be in UTC+0 times, so I think they are correct, right? I was wasting your time, because I did not check precisely where is a "problem", sorry. But for me it looks now, that exported time is valid.

[Christian]

Thanx for this link. Really helpful.
I was not awar of UTC +0. So sorry for creating a problem doesn't exist.

[Menion]

nono absolutely no problem. To be true, I had no idea that there should be UTC+0. I wrote this export really looong time ago and since then I completely forget what is and what isn't needed.
