track 'n share help

- Adding photos and videos!

Press the "Add Media" button in the wizard at the top of the screen to open the photo editor. You will see both tracks in the map of Australia:

Now you are ready to add the photos and a video. You can either drag 'n drop the photos or use the "Add media" button at the bottom of the screen. Select all photos and the video and press ok. You will now see the track 'n share client is processing the photos. A progress bar is displayed just above the the buttons.

Once you are done you should see the following:

You will see 7 photos and a video. The video can be recognized by the film strips (so it is the last item in the list). Also notice that all media (photos and videos) show "not tagged", which means the track 'n share client did not add the location to the photos just yet.

So let's tag the photos! In this case, the GPS and the time in the photograph do not match. This is because of incorrect timezone information in the GPS. So we need to correct the photographs but by how much? Let's look at the time of the track. To do this, press the "Edit text" button in the wizard and click on "Edit Tracks" at the bottom of the screen. This will take you to the track editor screen.

Look in the trackpoints at the bottom of the screen. You will see that the first trackpoint started just after midnight and the last trackpoint ended around 8:37 AM. Looking at the list of photos, a time correction of 9 hours is needed.

Now go back to the photo editor by pressing the "Add Photos" button on the wizard. Next we need to apply the time correction. To do this, click on the timeshift button, select "Subtract" the first field and fill out 9 under "Hours". When done, press Ok. In the next screen, choose "Process all photos" as we need to correct all photos.

Notice that processing videos or photos does not make any difference... well actually just one. Videos cannot be rotated.

Before we continue to look at the result, let's do one more thing: add a comment to a photo. To do this, select any photo or video and type the comment in the box that says No comment yet. Click here to add a comment to your photo! Once you have typed a comment it is automatically saved. You can just go the next photo or go to the next step in the tutorial.

Ok we're done, all photos are now corrected. Press "Save" and let's go and have a look at the result!
