Incorrect imports from Mares Dive Organizer

Post by DiveMike »

Hi all/Sven,

When importing dives from Mares Dive Organizer numeric values are not imported correctly.

- a dive time of 1hour and 40sec becomes 3640min in DivingLog (looks like seconds are interpreted as minutes on import)
- ppO2 of 1.4bar becomes 1400bar in DivingLog (millibar vs. bar interpretation?)
- dive mode Nitrox and O2 percentages are not imported at all by DivingLog
- the times of a depth profile seen to be shifted a minute towards the end of the dive, and the last minute is then missing (so I never reach the surface 8) )
- the average depth and air consumption also differ (this may be due to the missing profile entries?)

The versions I use:
DivingLog 5.0.15
Mares Dive Organizer 2.18.7.17

Anybody else having similar issues and/or a solution?

Cheers,
Michael

Both 5.0.16 and 6.0.0 do work OK for the diving time and O2 %, but the other issues remain. I will send you file as requested.

Thank you, I've uploaded a patch for Diving Log 5.0 and 6.0. Please extract the correct zip file into the program folder:

Diving Log 5.0
Diving Log 6.0

Regarding average depth: Diving Log ignores zero depth values, so minor differences are normal between applications.

Thanks for the quick patch!

I've tested the patches for both 5.0 and 6.0, the imports are OK now :D
