Hello.
I've got several videos (*.mov) from a Denver ACG-8050W GPS Camera. I tried to save the GPS-data in a GPX-file, but it doesn't work.
My steps (Exiftool v11.7.8.0):
- I've exported all meta-data in a TXT-file. In the QuickTime subsection I found tag "GPS Log".

- Now I tried the following command and I used the latest gpx.fmt file (2019/10/24), but there is no GPS information within the GPX-file. Can anybody help?
exiftool -p gpx.fmt -ee -ext mov -w OUTDIR/%%f.gpx INDIR
ExifTool doesn't currently decode the GPSLog data. I could maybe add this feature but I need to know which GPSLog tag we are talking about. What is the output of this command?:
exiftool -G5 -gpslog FILE
Also, could you attach the output of this command so I can see the raw binary data?:
(you'll need to do this from the command line)
exiftool -gpslog -b > out.dat
(maybe zip it first, then attach out.dat.zip)

Hello Phil,
thank you for your help. Here is the link for the zip-file!
https://easyupload.io/n4g172
I got the file, thanks.
Attached is a config file that will decode this tag for you. The config file is rather advanced, and uses some non-public ExifTool functions to accomplish this. The command will be:
exiftool -config gpslog.config -p gpx.fmt -ee -ext mov -w OUTDIR/%%f.gpx INDIR
As well as the tags I could figure out, there is an Unknown1 tag that is extracted. Please let me know if you can figure out what this is, or if you notice any problems.
- Phil
Edit: Fixed problems in config file.
Edit2: For ExifTool 12.03 to 12.22, use the config file in this post (https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=12285.msg66495#msg66495) instead. For ExifTool 12.23 and later, this GPS format is decoded without a config file.
Hello Phil,
I tried the command with both files, gpslog.config and gpx.fmt, but the created GPX-file has no data.

Hi Phil,
I don't understand the whole gpslog.config file, but I guess I found an error. GPSLongitude can't be "N" for north. It has to be "E" for east I think.
GPSLongitude => {
Require => 'GPSLog',
RawConv => \&ExtractGPS,
PrintConv => 'Image::ExifTool::GPS::ToDMS($self, $val, 1, "N")', //"?E?"
}
Further I guess some array pointer are wrong.
$a[0] =~ s/(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})(\d{2})/20$1:$2:$3 $4:$5:$6Z/;
$a[2 ?3?] = substr($a[2 ?3?],0,2) + substr($a[2 ?3?,2) / 600000;
$a[4 ?5?] = substr($a[4 ?5?],0,3) + substr($a[4 ?5?],3) / 600000;
$a[2 ?3?] *= -1 if $a[1 ?2?] eq 'S';
$a[4 ?5?] *= -1 if $a[3 ?4?] eq 'W';
You're right about the N/E error, but the subscripts are correct. It worked with the test file I set up, but there must be something different with your video. If you could upload it somewhere and send me a link (philharvey66 at gmail.com) I'll take a look.

Hello Phil,
thank you for your help!! I've sent you a video link via email.
I figured out what the Unknown tag stands for. It is an information about the consumed calories. The unit is kcal. Here is a screenshot of the denver GPS player:
(https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=10667.0;attach=3397)
PH Edit: Added screenshot as an attachment
Great, thanks. The problem was that in my test I didn't make the GPSLog tag a Binary data type, so I didn't need to dereference the $gpsLog variable. I've fixed this, and fixed the N/E problem, and added a name for the KiloCalories tag, and updated my previous post with the new config file. I think this would do what you want. Here is what I get for the track point matching the Denver GPS Player screen dump you sent:
