Don't put too much trust in the version numbers. If Garmin are A/B testing* new features then there is no guarantee that the version numbers will be directly relate to GCM evolution. I overcome this problem by skipping interval sessions! * where they release different version of the app to different users and track how they use it to determine which approach is the best received/most used/etc. |

Still think comparing .fit files would be the easiest way to see the difference...

It's nothing to do with the .fit files though is it? It's simply a filter on the app. The app actually shows the categorisation for each lap.

The app, and the connect website, are showing different behaviour for recent and older data acquired with the same interval set-up. So yeah, it might be something to do with the fit files. FWIW I put my last two interval sessions through the CSV converter in the most recent FIT SDK, and they looked pretty similar but there were a few extra messsages at the end of the newest one - undocumented (not unusual) but I could see very late in the file about a dozen messages with a single field in each one, and there were no undocumented messages in the previous interval session with only a single field. The lap messages themselves had the same number of fields, not all documented, across the two files. |

It could also be that new files are being processed and displayed differently at the server side, and old ones are not being reprocessed to match.

Ok, I thought everyone was saying it had changed for everything. If it's only changed for new then that's different.

There is a little confusion in this discussion...

The lap messages themselves had the same number of fields, not all documented, across the two files. And the workout step values were the same across the two files, give or take one being classified as active/rest vs active/recovery. |

If you upload two files into the online fitfileviewer site do the workout structures and laps look identical? Each workout element has an index number which the laps then refer back to so if there is any difference between those elements of the file you'd expect to see it there I suppose.

Just for you Kieren the weather looked apocalyptic for this evening's club track session so I programmed it into my FR and did it on the road a bit earlier. Same result as last time, all the different run types etc. I guess there must be something up with the files from your watch? Probably just a glitch? |
