Hello,

Tripmaster v2.4a is available for download here :
http://www.webazar.org/tomtom/tripmaster.php?lang=uk

The v2.4a version fixes a bug that prevents time refresh when Tripmaster is in automatic colors mode.

The v2.4 version fixes a memory leak when Tripmaster is put in background. It also re-introduces all the setup screen on v1.8 version.

Unfortunately, this version doesn't work with v8.350 Tomtom Navcore.

Many thanks rousillat, I have v2.3 installed on my TTGo730 at the moment. Unfortunately, when I have it running in the background it interrupts my navigated route and then keeps flashing on and off, very annoyingly. I have sort of fixed this by setting my maximum speeds to 190km/h (a speed i shall never attain so Tripmaster does not interrupt my route to tell me I'm exceeding the speed limit and start the interruptions). Please tell me, is this the same bug as the "Memory Leak" that you have fixed in v2.4.

Many thanks rousillat. I'd much prefer to have Tripmaster available as an option than a couple of new Flags telling me how far from home I am together with reduced volume limits, so I shall not be upgrading to Navcore 8.350 just yet.

No, this is not one of the bugs fixed in v2.4. I didn't even notice this.
I presume that the flashing sequence comes when Tripmaster is in background and when you reach the speed limit you've setup. That's it ?

Bonsoir rousillat, I did have (both) default speed limits set up on start up as 90km/h. This seemed to be the obvious choice for me as this is the normal national speed limit in Spain (and France?) except on a motorway or dual carriage way. However, when I did drive on a dual carriage way/motorway and drive at up to 110km/h exceeding the 90km/h pre-set, Tripmaster would come to the foreground and "flash" on and off, very erratically, spasmodically and never stop until I turned my TT Go730 off and re-started it. Which, in turn, interrupted the trip I was logging.

As I have mentioned, I overcame this by setting my maximum speeds as 190km/h which meant that Tripmaster never interrupted, but just stayed in the background, logging my trips.

So what is the memory leak you have fixed? How does it display itself? I have not noticed any bug other than the one I have just described nor read about any other user problems.

Regards, AliOnHols.

Greetings roussillat,
Very nice program, I make good use of it. On my Rider v2 with app 7.54 I do not have an icon added for Tripmaster.

I have no .mnu file. Previously simply adding the .bmp and .cap files to the sdkregistry folder made menu entrys. Do you think the Rider handles additional menu items different from the other models?

In the meantime I continue to use the previous app, which however won't let me use the map update I paid dearly for.
Regards, notsoslo

OK, I'm going to reproduce it and fix it. Can you try to remove the audible alarm if you've set it. I'm afraid the problem comes from that.

In fact, in v2.3, each time you put Tripmaster in background, it looses 200 Ko in the RAM memory of Tomtom. So, with v2.3, if you put in background and recall in foreground several times Tripmaster, your Tomtom will reboot when there's not enough memory left. This is fixed in v2.4.

On v7.54, you need to create a customized menu, with a /sdkregistry/tomtom.mnu file including a TASKSDK command to view a plugin icon.

Thank you for the response, I am anxious to try this. Can I make a single entry in the tomtom.mnu file for Tripmaster and expect it to appear at the end of the default menu or must the entire default menu be defined here also?

Sorry to make this so complicated, I did not understand tomtom.mnu could be used if I have the Tomtom standard menu. This will be fun.

You must define the entire menu.

Have a look here:

It's in french but you have examples to understand.

Hi roussillat,

are you still working on the ability to be able to reset the average speed reading?

Thanks

Yes, that in the todolist, but :
1- my priority is to find a solution for v8.350 Navcore problem with plugins
2- It's not so easy to do that because time used to calculate average is a key variable in Tripmaster behaviour, resetting it may produce strange effects.
3- I dont' know which screen zone I can use for that

Hello,

Thanks to Cyph on Tomtomheaven forum, I've been able to find a solution to get Tripmaster working on v8.350.

This week, I will deliver a v2.5 version for Tripmaster with an additional module for v8.350 Navcore.

Stay on the line, plugins adventure can continue ;-)
