Picture or Map transparent Overlay?

Hello All,

I try to use VirbEdit for all my clips, and I especially like to use the path or GPS overlay.

What I would like to do or know, is, if there is a way to take a picture or more wanting the actual Google Map image and overlay it with the GPS or Overlay path? So basically, you know how you choose map when editing? And then while the clip is playing, it shows your path and movement in the Google Map next to the clip, I'd like to find a way to either get a screen capture of that map image and run it with the path or GPS overlay within the video creation process.

Any help or ideas or video edit experts are all welcomed :) Thanks guys!

I figured out how to do this using ArcGIS relatively painlessly, but it would be a lot easier if Garmin would allow for this functionality

I don't use the camera for action shots like it's marketed for but rather for documenting while simultaneously collecting the 'where' information (geographic file). Here is a link to a video where I use an aerial imagery file (not Google imagery) as a background for the track gauge. I also change the location of the gauge in the frame at 23:00.

I´ve seen videos, where somebody just took a Google Maps Screenshot and overlaied the map in Edit.

You have to play around with the Zoomfactor and rotation until it fits, but it also should work.
