Hi,

After upgrading to latest version of TMJ, I can't import track to MapSource.
Export (saving it) in TMJ went without any problems (file *.gpx created sucessfuly) but while I'm trying to import it to MapSource I have message that this file could not be imported. :(

Just day before with older version of TMJ this procedure went like a charm.

Any clue?

Best regards,

remick

Hi remick,

I don't think I changed anything in the GPX export code since the previous version, but if you'd like to send me the exported GPX file offlist (to the email address in your registration email) I'll see if there is anything obvious wrong with it...

Cheers,
Stephen

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for prompt answer.

I've uploaded two tracks on rapidshare:

Wednesday is OK.
Thursday isn't (can't import to MapSource) :(

Best regards.

Found the reason !!

It has something to do with time format.
This can't be imported to MapSource:
<trkpt lat='63.396055' lon='12.924451666666666'><ele>436.5</ele><time>2009-03-26T9:36:17Z</time></trkpt>

While this:
<trkpt lat='63.396055' lon='12.924451666666666'><ele>436.5</ele><time>2009-03-26T09:36:17Z</time></trkpt>

without any problem

I was just "lucky" and all previous track was made after 10.00 so they were imported corectly, while thursday one was made before 10.00 and just because of this, MapSource doesn't like to import it.

Manualy I've changed in gpx file T9: into T09: and I have all tracks.

Aha, you beat me to it - I was just about to post the same result!! I've changed this for the next version so that the time is always formatted with 2 digits...

Hope you enjoyed the skiing!!

Cheers,
Stephen
