Dashcam Viewer v2.7.1 is now available from our website. This version adds support for a vertically-oriented Dashboard, among other changes listed below:

New Features:

• You can now orient the Dashboard window vertically or horizontally to optimize your window configuration.

Orient the Dashboard window vertically or horizontally using the Window menu option. Previously, only horizontal mode was supported.

• Increased max value in Distance graph from 200 to 400 distance units.

New Camera Supports:

• Added support for WASPCam POD 9401
• Compatible with Blaupunkt_BP3.0_FHD (Mac Only)

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed bug in which the window positions would not be remembered if the application was brought to the background and then back to the foreground.
• Fixed bug in which .gpx or .dat files would be ignored when loading movie files of the same base name. For example, if a movie named 2017_08_20.MP4 were collocated with a corresponding 2017_08_20.GPX file, the GPX file would have been ignored. Now it will be loaded and paired with the movie. This was a recently introduced bug.

Dashcam Viewer v2.7.0 is now available from our website. This version add a number of improvements to optimize window positioning.

New Features:

• The Map, Dashboard, Graph, and Control Center windows now float above the Main movie window. This allows you to maximize the size of Main window and overlay the ancillary windows on top. Previously, the ancillary windows would be hidden beneath the Main window. This change allows for more dynamic and efficient Dashcam Viewer window configurations.
• When Dashcam Viewer is put to the background, the ancillary windows will hide. They will come back when DV is brought to the foreground.
• The Map window can now be shrunk horizontally to a very small size.
• The Dashboard window can be shrunk horizontally to show only the speedometer and not the other widgets.

Dashcam Viewer v2.6.7 is now available from our website. Please see below for a list of new capabilities and fixes. Download the free version from our website.

New Features:

• You can now change color and size of vehicle map marker, or use the default marker icon.

Change the vehicle marker type, color, and size in the Preferences window.

• DJI drone SRT files: speed values are now smoothed. While it’s great that DJI conveniently logs the drone’s flight data into an SRT file, the speed of the drone is not written to the file and the latitude and longitude values are not stored in high precision. Dashcam Viewer uses the time-stamped lat/lon values to estimate the speed. The lack of precision means the speed varies somewhat wildly. This modification smooths out some of the unwanted variations.

Synchronized playback of DJI Mavic Pro video and trajectory data in Dashcam Viewer.

• Updated user’s manual.
