Hi all,
I heared about the possibility, that it should be possible, to train with bkool using real recorded videos and that the software will adapt speed and video motion corresponding to the speed sent via ANT+.
However, I am not able, that these videos will start. I always see only one still picture. If I change to 3D and other screens, I see my rpm and (virtual) speed.
Some words to my setup:
I have an older Tacx cycleforce with a digital human interface, where I can change my resistance in 14 steps and can see my achieved performance depending on speed, rpm and resistance (in watts). I equipped my bike with an ANT+ speed sensor and cadence sensor. Their readings show up in the simulator and I also subscriped for a premium account.
Now my questions: if I'm cycling, the simulator always calculates from rpm and speed always the same watts, regardless in what resistance level my tacx-trainer is. I know, that the simulator has not the information from the tacx-trainer.
Is there a way, I can tell the simulator, in which resistance level I am, so the simulator can get a better feeling of the watts, I am really producing? I would accept deviations in displayed and achieved watts.
And is the missing power feedback from my tacx trainer the reason, why the videos will not run and show only a frozen screen?
I really appreciate your feedback, because the training in line with real videos is what I am desperately looking for.
Thanks!
