Feature Request - Speed overlaid on Camera recording

NiSlo · 12-10-2006, 05:39 PM

First off, suberb software!

I think a great feature that could be included with the camera/record element of the program is the ability to overlay information available from the OBD-II interface or Gps receiver such as speed, altitude, location etc. Obvisouly the ability to pick and choose which parameters were displayed if any would be the whole point of such an feature.

Seeing as all the information is already available from other parts of the program, it wouldn't be a major task to add this in would it ?

P.S. I did do a search but could not find what I was looking for

not a bad idea, but would require some editing of the video instead of simply recording the stream...

I will look into at some point possibly, great idea though...

I actually went looking for this feature yesterday and found Tissy's thread here. Seeing as I'm super impressed with Centrafuse, and don't want to have to launch other proggies all over the place, that's where my want of this feature in centrafuse came from.

Perhaps a plugin by Tissy?

Also, the ability to specify a 'rolling buffer' of video. It could be determined by either movie length or file size, so the user could set say a 2 minute rolling buffer, so that you can hit the button and you have a record of what happened in the last 2 minutes

Really handy after having a traffic accident... Then you have proof the woman who hit you came from the left

I wish i had that feature last week, when the cops gave me a ticket for speeding 6km (!), while they were driving without their lights on (at night).
