Telemetry SecondMonitor (Timing & status App)

What a great little app, thank you @Winzarten for making it, maintaining it for all the sim and on top for free!
What would be amazing would be to be able to share/import reference laps (for example motec data) so one can compare himself to faster racers, do you have any plan on adding such an option, maybe?

 

Thnaks for the kind words, and sorry for the late reply
The app supports exporting/importing laps, so you can already do it in the app format.

Motec is more complicated, I know it is a general wish, but at first I would require some kind of specification for the format, so I can do a proper import/export for it. Just reverse engineering it is just too time consuming.

 

Hi, I am also having a microstutter on ACC. Used to work flawlessly until I upgraded my gpu and to windows 11. When ever I run the app, I get a microstutter every couple of seconds. I run secondmonitor on a 1080p screen which runs from my onboard gpu with dp cable. any ideas what I could try? thanks

 

I have no idea what might be causing it, there weren't any real changes to ACC handling in recent versions. I would try to disable driver animation in the map settings, and maybe increase the refresh rate in the Timing Grid.

But in the end, it could be the setup, and windows having problem properly schedule multimonitor setup from different GPUs.

 

Hi Winzarten

thanks for your answer. I literaly just tried the two monitors directly on the gpu and now it works perfectly.

 

@Winzarten can you record ghost’s telemetry to compare with?

 

It don't know TBH I would need to test it.
In shared memory a ghost is just another competitor, so the standard set - speed and location, should be available. But I don't know if the ghost ever, technically, does a complete lap, which is what triggers the data saving.

 

I will also test it tomorrow, but other telemetry apps can record it so would hope it works.

 

@Winzarten
impossible to launch secondmonitor today
Yesterday, it was OK

V9.9.1 is KO

V9.9.0 is OK

on my config

 

Just tried it and seems it doesn’t work in AMS2.

 

Hello Winzarten,
I would like to distribute the displays from Second Monitor over two monitors (one only with map, the other only live timing). However, since you cannot create two windows in SM, it would be possible to run two instances from SM on a computer at the same time, or do this problems with the data transfer from the SIM?
Thanks very much!

Hopefully it is fixed with the latest patch.

There might be an issue with UDP based sims (like the F1 series), as only one app can listen to the data at a time. Another issue might be both instances trying to access the same settings files, which would also make it difficult to have different layout on different instances.

I might add a pop-up functionality for the map similary how it is in the telemetry view, where the map can be poped up to a separate.

 

That would of course be awesome !!!

 

It's OK now
Thanks

 

If you have recent issues with second monitor crashing on startup, then please manually install the latest update, there was an issue with the auto-update functionality. Sorry for that.

I reinstalled my W11 last saturday and Second Monitor worked fine until monday. Then I had some windows 22H2 updates, and thought there were then reason why Second Monitor stop working. Thanks for the update, working fine now.

 

This should now be possible. There is an option in the settings that will make the app render the track map also in a separate window. The app will remember that window possition between launches, so it sholdn't be necessary to reposition it after each application start.

This will also work if the track map it not part of the main layout window. So technically one window can be whole timing, and another (the pop-up), can be track map.

 

Hi Winzarten,

thank you for the change with the separate window for the map. Works perfectly! Thanks! Great work!

Could anyone help me? I and my teammate want to use Second Monitor with the Remote function when I drive and my Teammate is spotting the sectors are shown normal but the other way around I can only see rounded times and no sectors I know that I fixed that Problem two years ago. But I forgot it sorry if the question is already answered. We are use rF2.
