Wrong data when playing back a fit

Hello there,

I've a FIT that I use to test our DataField but when I simulate data with that file (using Simulation>Activity Data on the Simulator menu) I've metrics which are different at each execution (e.g. the power) and even different of the data contained in the FIT itself, is this a bug or am I missing something?

I use SDK 4.1.5 with an Edge 1030

Thanks in advance for your help

Are you playing back a fit or just saying Data Simulation?

You need to to it this way to play back a fit:

Thanks for your answer, this is what I do (I've tried both "Fit/GPX Playable File" and "Workout FIT File").

To be more precise, the variation from original FIT data seems to increase minute after minute (for the first ones there is almost no issue but after minutes it feels there is more errors).

If you recorded the .fit with smart recording, the date only updates every few seconds. Did you use smart or 1 second recording?

I don't know, it has been recorded by a bike computer during a real workout

If you are curious here is the capture of the metrics after a few minutes of two runs of our datafield with the same FIT (look the power and the time)

The default on Garmin devices is "smart", so that was probably it.

Ah OK if I understand you can only simulate data with FIT recorded without smart recording.

I will ask the one who has recorded the FIT

And is this why there are, for example, some measures at 75-76-77s and the next time at 75-81s?
