Unit conversion #153

Closed SlippyJimmy closed 8 months ago

SlippyJimmy commented 8 months ago

I want to generate a running video overlay.but the cadence units is RPM,how to convert to SPM(steps per mins)?the speed units is mph or kph,how to convert to PACE(**mins per km)?

Hiya,

If the cadence values are correct, and its just the labelling that is wrong, you could perhaps use your own layout file?

The built-in layouts can be used as a base, to create any other layout you like.. for example, using the file: https://github.com/time4tea/gopro-dashboard-overlay/blob/main/gopro_overlay/layouts/default-1920x1080.xml

You could edit https://github.com/time4tea/gopro-dashboard-overlay/blob/main/gopro_overlay/layouts/default-1920x1080.xml#L47

to say something else?

There is some documentation on thexml layout format at: https://github.com/time4tea/gopro-dashboard-overlay/tree/main/docs/xml

For unit conversions of pace.. this is something that hasn't come up previously. I'll look to add it.

First of all, thank you for your answer. Adding pace unit conversion is exciting for runners. See the picture below for the settings of SPM（steps per mins). I rechecked my fit file, and the value of cadence is PRM(Revolutions per mins) (as we all know,RPM is half of SPM). What should I do to double the value display?

This is released in v0.107.0 - should be on PyPI shortly. Note that pace may be off by 1 spm, this will be fixed in the next release.

You'll need to change the unit of the cadence metric to "spm"

<component type="metric" x="-140" y="36" metric="cadence" units="spm" dp="0" size="64" align="right" />
