[BUG] Zwift Treadmill Auto Workout doesn't work correctly, speed was set way to low on treadmill

[afitz85]

Describe the bug Enabled "Zwift Treadmill Auto Workout" but the speed that was sent to the treadmill doesn't match the spped it should. The speed of the treadmill was always sent way too low... 1.5 km/h instead of 12.5 km/h for example. And the speed was only decreased, never increased. So when the speed on the treadmill was very low on 1.5 km/h it never gets higher when zwift says 12.5 km/h. But i tried it several times, and - i don't know why - the speed also was sometimes set correct, but that was only once, and in the next workout step it was totally wrong again.

I have a Horizon Paragon X Treadmill.

@victorypoint i need your help here. it seems that sometimes the paddle ocr returns some strange values

do you suggest to use the ai server instead?

[victorypoint]

@afitz85, I'd like to test with the exact same workout as you to eliminate a few things. What is the workout - provided with Zwift or a custom one?

[afitz85]

I tried 3 different zwift workouts, no custom ones.

[victorypoint]

I tried 3 different zwift workouts, no custom ones.

Ok, can you tell me which ones?

[afitz85]

I think this was one of them.

[victorypoint]

I think this was one of them.

Ok thanks. I'll give this a test tonight when I get home.

[afitz85]

I didn't really run today, just wanted to test how it works with qz and automatic treadmill workouts, so i just picked some to try it out. So i'm not 100% sure which ones i tested. But the one above was definitly one of them.

[afitz85]

I think this was one of them.

Ok thanks. I'll give this a test tonight when I get home.

Thank you!

[victorypoint]

@afitz85, can you confirm which QZ Windows package you're using? Zip file you downloaded?

[victorypoint]

@cagnulein, @afitz85, I know what the issue is. I only tested the code to work with specific workout instructions such as:

Unfortunately, most regular Zwift workouts begin with a warmup instruction and rarely have incline, such as:

So I have to revise the python code to accomodate these types of workouts. The OCR conversion is working fine. I'll find time to do this on the weekend.

Good to hear 👍🏻 I used the windows-binary of this version

So workouts with constant speed, without warm-up or cool-down ramps will work so far?

[afitz85]

+++ maybe a little bit off topic, but is there a way to add my set speed_offset in qz (-0.55 km/h in my case) to the workout speed zwift sends to the treadmill? Otherwise the "right" speed is always 0.55 km/h to low when the speed_offset is ignored?

[cagnulein]

yes just copy and paste that value in the speed offset setting

[afitz85]

Sorry, where i have to copy it? I set the speed_offset here...

Just to be clear... This works so far, when i set the treadmill to 10.6km/h, zwift speed is about 10km/h (speed offset works). But when zwift says the workout step is 10km/h, the treadmill runs at 10km/h, and ignores the speed_offset of 0.55km/h (it should run at 10.6km/h to match the "real" 10km/h for me. Is this possible?

[cagnulein]

hah sorry got it now! yes i can apply it to the training too! let me do this today! thanks for the feedback!

[afitz85]

Great to hear 👍🏻🥳 Thanks

[cagnulein]

actually @afitz85 I already did for your last ticket #2012 are you using the last version?

[afitz85]

i downloaded the latest version yesterday (windows binary) https://github.com/cagnulein/qdomyos-zwift/actions/runs/7641451863 yes.

In the Ticket #2012 there was a problem if i tried to increase the speed on android in the qz app with the + button, then the treadmill speed decreased heavily (think from 8km/h to 1.5km/h or so)

[cagnulein]

yes it's the same thing, now, when the parsing from zwift will be correct, qz will use the same approach to change the speed. so it will use the speed offset as it does when you are using the plus button (it's the same internal function).

did you already have an evidence that this is not working?

[afitz85]

ok that's good to hear.

Due to the generally incorrect values transmitted by Zwift, I'm a bit unsure now, I thought it didn't work, but before you do anything I'll check it again in the evening

[cagnulein]

Perfect!

[afitz85]

debug-Fr__Jän_26_15_21_17_2024.log

i tried a custom workout now (without ramps, just constant speed), because i can't find any zwift workout with constant speed, all have a warm-up ramp at the beginning. So unfortunately it doesn't work at all... none of the speeds of the workout was transmitted to the treadmill...

[afitz85]

the settings i made are correct? or have i to do anything else?

[victorypoint]

@afitz85, I will have a solution to this soon. Thanks for testing 👍

[afitz85]

Perfect, looking forward to this 👍🏻 thanks.

[victorypoint]

@afitz85, please try the attached custom workout. It will go through a series of quick speed and incline changes - 5 changes in total for 30 seconds each.

QZ Test.zip

[afitz85]

debug-Fr__Jän_26_16_12_24_2024.log

ok so that looks better now but...

• to start the workout i had to increase the speed manually because with my set speed_offset in the qz app (-0.55) the starting speed on my treadmill only was 0.2km/h (looks like this is to slow for zwift to start the workout timer). But then when the timer started the workout speed was correctly transmitted to the treadmill

• looks like the speed at the treadmill only changed when the incline changes, like the incline will trigger the speed to change (so incline definitely works)

PS: How do you make workouts with incline? Thats cool :)

[cagnulein]

@afitz85 if you change the speed from the qz tile are you able to do it without changing the inclination too?

[afitz85]

yes, when i change the speed from the qz tile, i can increase the speed without changing inclination

i tried the workout once again and i can say, the treadmill is starting automatically and the incline is set correctly. but the speed stays as it is (jumped not to the workout speed)

when the secound workout step started the speed doesn't change immediately, it took about 2 seconds then the incline changes, and then did the speed change

[afitz85]

but maybe it just took a while (2 to 3 seconds) till changes where applied, and speed will also change automatically without incline change!?

[cagnulein]

i guess i got it, it's because i'm sending a ftms frame to start the simulation 2 times and probably the treadmill refuses it (i did this for a technogym treadmill)

let me try a branch to remove this

[afitz85]

ok.

tried my custom workouts again (they are without incline) and there the workout neither starts by itself nor does the speed change

[cagnulein]

@afitz85 done https://github.com/cagnulein/qdomyos-zwift/actions/runs/7670262351

[cagnulein]

@afitz85 wait there is a major issue on your settings! the speed force setting in the treadmill section is disabled!

[afitz85]

This one?

yes it was disabled. i enabled it, restarted the qz app, but nothing changes

[afitz85]

@afitz85 done https://github.com/cagnulein/qdomyos-zwift/actions/runs/7670262351

when it's ready i try the windows binary there?

[cagnulein]

@afitz85 done https://github.com/cagnulein/qdomyos-zwift/actions/runs/7670262351

yes

[cagnulein]

This one?

yes it was disabled. i enabled it, restarted the qz app, but nothing changes

so you tried a zwo file with only speed changes and it doesn't work with this enabled? share a debug log plz

[afitz85]

debug-Fr__Jän_26_16_57_25_2024.log

yes, nothing changed i tried my workout without incline, and the one with incline

@afitz85, when you get things working again, I have a fix for the workout speed and incline for you to test please. Download the attached, unzip, and copy the zwift-workout.py file inside your QZ folder overwriting the old one. Test a workout and let us know!

zwift-workout.zip

[cagnulein]

debug-Fr__Jän_26_16_57_25_2024.log

yes, nothing changed i tried my workout without incline, and the one with incline

@afitz85 i checked this log and the speed is changing when qz asks it. i saw also, and maybe it's the issue that you are referring to, that when you set speed 0 qz can't control it, but that's quite usual for all the treadmills. can you try a session without setting the speed to 0 manually?

[afitz85]

Should i tty these things going back to an earlier version than https://github.com/cagnulein/qdomyos-zwift/actions/runs/7670262351?

I can't set my tteadmill to 0 speed, the lowest possible is 0.8km/h. The 0 speed you see must be when i stop (pause) the treadmill!?

When it is in pause mode the workout automatically started with the test workout of @victorypoint, my custom workouts haven't done.

[cagnulein]

yes

I can't set my tteadmill to 0 speed, the lowest possible is 0.8km/h. The 0 speed you see must be when i stop (pause) the treadmill!?

yes i guess so. in that case we need to handle a start, but let's put one problem in the fire at one time :)

When it is in pause mode the workout automatically started with the test workout of @victorypoint, my custom workouts haven't done.

ok but if you don't press pause or stop on the treadmill, is the custom workout executed correctly? if not can you share a debug log with only a simple custom workout with only speed changes that doesn't work?

[afitz85]

ok, now i get an older version and workouts are still working the same as they did yesterday.

debug-Sa__Jän_27_08_19_59_2024.log

now my treadmill was running at 3.5km/h and i started my custom workout without incline, there nothing happens, no speed changes. Then i startet (while the treadmill was sill running) the Test Workout of @victorypoint from yesterday and it worked the same as it did yesterday. speed was just changed when the incline was changed. But in the second workout step just the incline changes, no speed was changed!? The next steps worked then again.

BUT i haven't tried the new zwift-workout.py file yet... that's im gona do now.

[cagnulein]

@afitz85 i guess there is some confusion in the terms :D when i'm talking about custom workouts, i'm talking about loading a zwo file directly in qz. Instead, in this log, I see that you are using zwift OCR for the workout, isn't it?

So in order to address the speed issue, just load a simple zwo file that you can create from http://80.211.67.253:8081/training.htm?fbclid=IwAR07s1MGtk-xjNPZDj_vsE89PEUqv6D5ycffYmNxDUqax8rD0bbdMFpqDLg

so i can understand if there is any issue with the speed at all in your treadmill.

also another question: which is the minium speed step that your treadmill can change? 0.5km/h? 0.1 km/h?
