DashWare 1.1 has been released with several significant improvements and new data analysis functionality that compliments our new ChaseCam Data Module (http://www.chasecam.com/data):

Auto-sync your ChaseCam data with your video! If you have ChaseCam data from several drivers in a race, DashWare will auto-sync them together for you! This feature works only with ChaseCam data and video.
New Analysis graphs! Break down your data right in DashWare: compare data from different laps, different sessions, and/or different drivers. Graph by Time or by Position to see why your friend is quicker coming out of turn 2.
New Data Profiles allow you to streamline your data for DashWare: import your CSV data more easily, create new calculated columns, and map your data to gauge inputs exactly how you want. Use our built-in data profiles to work with CSV files from several brands of data loggers; clone and customize them for your needs, or create your own data profiles from scratch.
Support for many new Data Types added for gauge inputs, including the ability to define your own data types.
If you are using another data logger that is synced with your ChaseCam recorder (such as an RLC) you can set your own Auto-Sync Offset.
Linear interpolation is now used to help smooth out your data.
More user control over how DashWare detects your lap transitions.
Added the ability to ignore the first and/or last lap, and to choose which lap(s) you want your map gauge to display. You don't have to see your entry and exit laps on the sync map anymore!
Improved Open Course (i.e., autocross) support.
New Stock Gauges and project Templates!

Show a History Tail in your G-Force Plot gauge components. Use a short duration to display a comet-like tail, or use a long duration to show your full G-Force cloud.
Much improved Undo/Redo support for project changes.
Miscellaneous bug fixes.

I look forward to trying the new version out.

Is there an email that gets sent out or an update manager that notifies us when a new version is released? Just wondering.

Is there an update for 1.1.1 users or do I have to uninstall it before I download 1.1.2 ?

Yeah, uninstall the old version and install the new one. Your settings, projects, etc will not be deleted.

Thanks,

After I installed 1.1.3 none of the video works anymore. Either on the existing projects or in new projects. Running Vista. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck.

DashWare 1.1.4 is now available. Updates include:

-New ChaseCam Quick Project Creator that makes it easier than ever to create your ChaseCam data video projects.
-Improved AiM data importing, no need to tweak your AiM CSV file in Excel any more.
-DashWare now imports TCX and GPX data files and has cool new bicycling gauges and a project template included (thanks Steve Weixel!).
-New GSX-R1000 gauges and project template, as well as some new simple example gauges.
-New calculators: Distance Converter, Delta Value Calculator, and Lap Summary Calculator (for min/max/avg values per lap).
-The Averaging Calculator can now average backwards, forwards, or in both directions (default / old behavior).
-We tweaked our licensing parameters to hopefully keep it from re-prompting you for activation regularly. This issue was caused by the Windows defragger. Note that this DashWare release will require 1 activation prompt after installation.
-Worked around a .NET bug that was causing "fuzz" to sometimes appear on the lines in map images.
-Misc bug fixes.
