Hi,

I installed 3.7 yesterday and the Coretemp core temperature data was not read from the FIT file from my Hammerhead Karoo 2. The skin temperture was. This is on my MacBook. I've an early release of 3.6 (Build ID 5000 dated 5 Aug 2003) on my Windows PC. It read both the core and skin temperature.

On 3.7, looking at the Raw Data tab at the bottom of the screen there are Basic Data, DEVELOPER LAP and SESSION tabs. In 3.6 it is Basic Data, DEVELOPER and EXPORT. The Core Temperature data sits under the EXPORT tab in FIELD_139.

Can this be fixed?

Regards

Graham

It should be on DEVELOPER tab according after https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/pull/4612

Ale,

Thanks for the link.

Please see attached screenshot showing the DEVELOPER tab of the raw data after an import with 3.7. I don't have the CIQ_core_temperature column. On 3.6 the DEVELOPER tab shows the same columns but three is also the EXPORT tab. The second (more recent screenshot) shows the core temp data is there.

Ihewitt's post dated 2nd Feb seems to be saying Garmin devices use a hack to get the data into the DEVELOPER tab. Version 3.6 seems to be using a different method to pull the data in but I'm not a coder. I've no idea which would be the correct method, if there is one.

I guess the workaround for now is to use 3.6 to read the FIT file, if I'm using the CORE sensor.

Regards

Graham

If you attach a sample fit file I will give this a look, otherwise there is no much I can do.

BTW one the problems we have is the lack of collaboration of users for testing when features are developed, once a version is released and the involved developers are not actively working on them anymore tends to be too late for a rapid response.

Ale,

attached a FIT file with the CoreTemp Data.  V3.6 reads in the core temperature in FIELD_139 under the EXTRA tab. To plot the data I used:

# type in a formula to use

# for e.g. BikeStress / Duration

# as you type the available metrics

# will be offered by autocomplete

XDATA("EXTRA","FIELD_139",repeat)


V 3.7 reads the skin temp data but not the core temperature.


Fit File Viewer show a column labeled core_temperature.

Understand your last point and appreciate you spending some time to understand if there is an easy solution.

Thank you, in fact there seems to be one in this case: https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/issues/4643

Since this is a regression I generated a new v3.7 Windows/Qt6 installer including its fix, it is available from https://github.com/GoldenCheetah/GoldenCheetah/releases/tag/v3.7, Linux and macOS updates will follow.

Linux and macOS Qt6 builds are updated too.

Ale,

Did a ride with the Core today. All working as expected - needed to create a new chart for the new variable name but no big deal.

Thank you very much

Graham
