Track recording interval (update delay) question
Posted: Thu Sep 10, 2020 8:16 pm
Hi, François!
Positioning → Track recorder → Track recorder Settings → Location update delay → Update every 5 s (default).
The application (AQ) never records track points exactly at 5-second interval. The same thing occurs with all other update delay values.
First my suspicion fell on the device (my Galaxy Note 4 rather out-of-date). I made some tests recording tracks simultaneously in 3 applications under more or less similar conditions and with similar settings and I found out that tracks (points of a track) may be recorded exactly at the specified interval in one of these applications.
I wonder why AlpineQuest does not make the track recording with the exact interval? The exact recording does work but not with AlpineQuest unfortunately. Is it possible to change / modify the application settings so that it could make track recording with the exact intervals as it set in Track recorder Settings (Location update delay)?
I am ready to upload the file wth the test results.
