Update firmware for Zwift Cog compatibility

A bit embarrassing that Wahoo, Jetblack, Van Rysel and now Elite have all added zwift cog and virtual shifting support....Tacx was so far ahead of the competition for so many years.  Is such a shame that Tacx are now falling behind, virtual shifting is just one area but a very visible one for buyers and owners

I’d love to see an update for the Tacx Neo 2T. I recently tested virtual shifting with the Zwift Cog on a Wahoo Kickr, and it was so smooth. It would be fantastic if Garmin could implement this feature soon—otherwise, I might have to consider switching trainers.

I’m aware of the workaround using the QZ app, but I really believe this should be a native feature, eliminating the need for third-party solutions.

Wait. What?  There's a way to do this?  What is QZ? Two months gone by in a right shoulder sling and looking at another month before I'll be able to shift with my right hand, so please share.

I think as a side project I will try to make a raspberry pi that acts as a bridge between my neo 2t and zwift.
Basically a pi with a small OLED screen on it to display the current gear and a couple physical buttons to go up and down gears.

QZ does this already but the downside is that it uses your phone (can't shift gears and use companion app at the same time), has a cluttered interface and physical buttons to shift will feel better.

Take a look at (removed link). No need for a display or extra buttons as it supports virtual shifting with Zwift like Wahoo and the others do. You can shift with the Click or the Play controllers and see the gear on screen. 

(Moderator Note: Removed external link to this user's third party solution. This innovative DIY project involves splitting the power supply and cannot be generally advised)

Wow, this is amazing. I think your solution is great and gives the full native virtual shifting experience.
I may still continue with my version as a pet project. I've already ordered the hardware for mine (just an off the shelf pi zero w) so I might as well go through with it lol. My version will not be a native experience, probably with gears displayed on the pi screen instead of the zwift screen, and shifting done on the pi. It will also be very cheap (no controllers or hub). 
Your github repo is very informative and well documented. If I feel the need for the full experience I will definitely use your repo. Nice job!

I am fairly github ignorant but was able to find useful information with a Google search using user name. 

Hi, I have tried juergenleber's solution,
SHIFTR on github. The experience has been in two races and two freerides. In my case it has been very positive. No delay in gear shifting and resistance adjustment. In my case I did not use the Y cable and the DC-DC, I used a USB cable as power supply directly to the PC.
In SHIFTR settings the best experience was found by selecting "track-resistance".

I take this opportunity to thank juergenleber for his talent and generosity.

FYI, MyWhoosh have just implemented Virtual Shifting, in the app, no specific hardware required. Should work with Tacx Neo.just fine. 

Of course, the same has been available in IndieVelo for some time. 

Makes you wonder why Zwift didn't take the same approach ;-)

I Switched to mywhoosh some weeks ago, going to try this evening.

I hope there will be a way to map some hardware to shift, rather than using the touch screen of tablet or the app link on phone.

I like to have a physical feedback.

Main reason to use it  : putting an old bike on the neo that will be permanently attached.

Otherwise I like to use my shifters.

Gonna try in a couple of hours.

Eager to have your review as well.
