Default Traqmate goes HD

Okay, somewhat off topic but I still thought it of interest.

What I really like is the image of the Triumph GT6. First car I ever owned and great fun. Thrashed it so hard as a teenager that I once set the brakes on fire.

Oh, the header photo for the story doesn't hurt either.

I met them and seen the HD at the PRI show. Looks nice, going away from the Chasecam.
I will be updating my system as soon as I find a good installer in South Florida and post results here.

The Traqmate dials look great in HD, here is a test I did recently using a Contour HD camera as a source.

This may be a stupid question, but does the Contour HD work with the Traqmate software? I have the Contour HD but have not yet begun to research if it can be so used. Anyone know? TIA

Well, as you can see from the video, it does. Now that was originally recorded at the 1280x720 60fps setting. The clip converted to .AVI.

Future releases of Traqstudio I would imagine will be compatible with AVCHD so the camera file from, say, your SONY camcorder will plug right in.

OK, I'm dense. I assume that 'the video' refers to the one in the blog w/ the traqmate data embedded.. Could not tell if you were just talking about the street scene in the vimeo clip from your post.

How does the traqmate compare in real application with a video v-box ?
