The reason for the trimming is still relevent even with a tps lookup. When people copy/paste into vdr, they generally only paste the adjacent cells to the wot tps data. Sometimes the last line of data seems to create artifacts and skews the end of the graph. I will send you a log with such an anomaly for you to try in your version.

I would love to use every line of data rather than the 50rpm lookup but the issue is with the smoothing. The more lines, the more columns of smoothing (I.e; averaging) I need. To reference those columns, I would need an immense amount of smoothing points for large datalogs. Maybe u can share how you guys are averaging? I average the adjacent cell, plus the one above and below it.

I am doing it all in my code but basically the same way you are doing it.

Does anyone have an insanely large datalog pull with tons of data per second for me to test with?? If so, please email it to me at punkdivo78 at hot mail dot c.om (I did that for you Tephra,lol).

Ok, now I kNOW I am out of my realm......knee deep. Unfortunately none of the images show up for me and the PDF link didnt work either

With VDR, the only way I could get any repeatable data was by first LOCKING the range of data used by finding the closest RPM point that matched my 50 RPM increment. So basically from 2450rpm and up, it searches in 50rpm increments. This allowed me to have control over the amount of data I would be smoothing. The problems occur at the ends of the curves though, especially the highest rpm range. This is due to a lack of 'even' averaging since the data just ENDS. Donour, if you know a way I can try to incorporate this into an excel spreadsheet, I'd love to try it if I can even understand it,lol. Other than basic algebra, I have limited experience which advanced mathematics.

As you stated in your other thread, VDR somehow did a fair job of mimicking dyno plots I used to build it. *shrug* Dont ask me how,lol. Anyone who has tried deciphering my formulas can attest to the cluster f&ck it became up til this point. I should have stripped it down and rebuilt it long ago.

ok email sent.. about 240-250lines for the 4th gear pull... i am sure u will get more ppl helping.

anyway a suggestion... instead of re-inventing the wheel... just use someone eleses smoothing functions... the ones before might be good.

What are the largest file sizes people have seen? I thought i was able to log over 1000 lines before. Just RPM logging with nothing logging to the screen, I think.
