Hook 2

This is an updated hook, which will be included in the next official release. It includes:

• debug logging (d5e970f)
• fitness test data (#39)

Attached files:

• Qt5Network.dll - Windows DLL
• QtNetwork - OSX framework

Bipolar 0.3.1

Features:

• option to enable/disable R-R HRM output.
• option to enable/disable the HRM "LapNames" extension.
• option to use UTC timestamps in TCX output (#36)

Bipolar 0.3.0

This is the first official release to provide a complete (Wizard-based) user interface. It has the same output capabilities (GPX, HRM, TCX, etc) as the previous (0.2.3) release, but presents a nicer user interface, including:

• various configurable options, such as input and output directories;
• faster skipping of previously-converted training sessions; and
• a progress bar to indicate conversion progress.

As this is the first release with a "complete" user interface, it probably will have introduced some new issues. If you run into problems, you can reinstall the 0.2.3 release without any problems. Of course, please report any issues that do come up.

Bipolar 0.2.3

A small update to add the following feature(s):

• separate HRM files for R-R data (#28)

Bipolar 0.2.2

A small update to fix the following bug(s):

• preserve trailing laps in TCX output (#27)

Bipolar 0.2.1

Features:

• support for HRM export (#14)
• lap data in TCX output (#18)
• lap data in GPX output (#22)

Notes:

• the HRM standard is quite poorly documented (certainly much worse than GPX and TCX), and Polar ProTrainer 5 (which appears to be the most popular HRM consumer) doesn't obey "the standard", so at least some applications are likely to have issues with the current HRM output. Please report any issues that you find.
• there's no training target phases in the HRM output yet, because the data is simply not available from FlowSync.

Debug version of the hook library

This is a debug version of the hook that's included with Bipolar 0.1.x and 0.2.x.

This version writes a bunch of log info to %TEMP%/Bipolar-hook-debug.txt

By default, on Windows, that would be C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\Bipolar-hook-debug.txt, but you can verify the TEMP path by running echo %TEMP% from a command prompt.

This library needs to be installed manually (ie copied into your Polar FlowSync directory).

You normally would not use this unless being asked to in response to some support issue.

Bipolar 0.2.0

Features:

• Mac OS X support.
• additional TCX elements (#16)
• preview (incomplete) HRM export (#14)
• upgrade to Qt 5.3.1 (from 5.3.0)

Bipolar 0.1.1

Features:

• sport type autodetection (#12)

Bipolar 0.1.0

This the first release with GUI (albeit very basic) and installer.

Features:

• export to both GPX and TCX file formats.
• Windows installer, including installation of the Polar FlowSync hook.
• absolute minimum UI.

While this release includes a lot of behind-the-scenes code for parsing training session data and exporting to GPX and TCX, the GUI has been intentionally left ultra-bare at this stage. This, of course, is to allow people (like myself) to begin capturing and exporting data as soon as possible, while the GUI bells and whistles can wait for a later release (currently planned for 0.3.0).

Note, the Qt5Network.dll hook DLL is available as a separate download for anyone wishing to use it to capture data for their own software projects. It is also included in the Bipolar-0.1.0.238.exe installer, so you don't need to download nor install the DLL separately if using the installer.
