Trouble with GPS-signal on Virb videos

Hi,

My setup:
- Two Virb Elites
- Garmin Edge 1000
- Latest Virb Edit SW (All sensors was disabled but GPS)

Trouble/fault:
I am recording movies and uploading to kinomap.com for my indoor training this season. Yesterday I did a two hour ride with my Virbs and Edge 1000. Everything looked fine; both Virbs started to record when I started the ride on my Edge. The front cam was mounted upwards, and it was recording at all times. Everything seemed ok. The trip was ended and the Virbs saved gps info and went into idle. When I uploaded fraom Edge to Garmin Connect I confirmed that the whole track had been record on the gps.

When I then imported clips from Virb I recognized that on some of the clips the gps-trac was grey instead of black. When I ran the "grey" clips I found that they grey part did not have any gps-info - the "pointer" did not follow in the map. I then tried to remove all the gps-info from the clips and imprt gpx from Edge 1000. I had the same result.

PLZ ADVICE!

    I have problems with editing. The speed isn't there anymore when i am in the Edit Mode. Very annoying, when you need the speedmeter on your movies.
    I bought the Virb for the GPS, otherwise i could have bought the other camera on the market : ?

    I hope there is an update very soon for this problem.............
  • Here is a workaround which works for me: set your VIRB to only save GPS data when recording. Sensor info then show in Create Video mode.
    Till Garmin has fixed this obvious bug...
