Mapillary Desktop Uploader 4.6.0 is out now

A idea for the next update (if possible), when processing is displayed (right upper corner), is it possible to add a time estimate? Sometimes it takes al lot of time to process (I prefer first a process before uploading), and with a estimate counter it’s easier to plan around.

And a estimate timer for the upload would also be very nice.

De GoPro Max has sometimes GPS is too noisy, is it possible to extract only the parts of the video which are good?

@4004 I haven’t paid much attention to it. I use photos, not videos, with my GoPros. Is there a reason you do so?

I do it because it feels like I get better pics. And when I’m out hiking it uses a lot less battery.

Thank you.

I also use interval photos - it was @osmplus_org that is using video on Insta360.
Arguments for photos are better bandwidth, generally better compression, easier editing, battery life, storage

There are several good reasons why some people love the GoPro Max.

For example, the Insta 360 X3 forces you to use video mode so that it can produce usable GPX tracks. GoPro is much more flexible and is probably the better choice for long distances by bike. Everyone has their own special needs.

Hello. Using Mapillary Desktop Uploader 4.6.0 I uploaded several videos from a 70MAi A800S dash cam, each with an individual GPS file obtained from the text file GPSData000001.txt. For some reason the video date and time are incorrect. They do not correspond to the real one and are about 8 hours less than the upload time. Mapillary

Thanks for letting us know! Is your time zone or the time you uploaded the images 8 hours away from UTC (https://www.utctime.net/)?

No. My time differs from UTC by 3 hours. The question is that it should not be the download date/time that is indicated, but the shooting date/time. And the shooting took place in May-August 2024.

I can say for sure that when I uploaded a video using mapyllary_tools (this was discussed here Using the 70mai A810 Dashcam for Mapillary - #26 by matsumi), the shooting date was indicated and the video was embedded in the chronological list of previously uploaded sequences.

OK, looks like the date issue was fixed in mapillary_tools so it will be included in the next release of the desktop uploader, as well. I’ll make a new post when 4.7.0 is out.
