My ASEAN Free GPS Map Project

If absolute time on the time stamp is important to you, as it is to bro wblee, then you need to check the Save time zone** in the settings (see my screenshot on the 1st post).

If it is not, then you don't need to check the Save time zone**, then your tracks will be reported eight hours behind because MapSource thinks it's UTC, but at least you can open in MapSource right away.

Use GPSBabel to convert from GPX to GPX or GDB by:

• downloading the program and installing, or
• converting online

Thanks a lot to bro tympg. It works perfectly

but it seems to be quite trouble for me to convert the file every time. probably i still stick to MyTracks

Bro, another method is

1. Don't check the Save time zone.
2. Open the GPX file with a text editor and replace all
   
   
   Z</time
   
   with
   
   
   </time

Then the GPX file will be "time-zone blind", i.e. seen as local time whichever time zone your device/PC/software is set.

Thanks Bro for the quick response. Actually, I am more concerned with the accuracy of the tracks as opposed to the time difference. However, with geotagging of POIs, I still have to satisfy Geosetter's time frame to obtain POI location accuracy...

Thx, cool appz.

Thanks for the advice. This work also
I learned something new.

Bro, Sobamy
It's my habit that i want the timestamp to be correct.
It is useful info to me especially when doing mountain hiking or jungle trekking.
