The Queue and Issues

Home has three tabs: Queue, History and Issues. This page explains each one.

The Queue

The Queue holds the files that still need processing. Each row is a session, newest first. Open a row to see its files.

New sessions

Capture processes new sessions on its own from the day you install it. You do not need to open the Queue for that. To choose by hand what gets processed, turn off Process as you go in Settings → Capture.

Older telemetry

Files from before you installed Capture are not processed automatically. They wait in the Queue, and the Queue says how many there are. Process them when you want:

1. Open the Queue tab on Home
2. Read the plan notice first. If your plan cannot upload all of them, the Queue says so before you start
3. Click the main action, for example Process 120 files
4. The button turns into a progress state while the batch runs

Capture processes older files in batches of 500. If more files remain, they appear when the batch finishes. Process them the same way. You can close the window while a batch runs.

Plan notices

Before you start a batch, the Queue checks your plan:

• If your plan has room for only some sessions or laps, the rest may not fit and stay on this PC.
• If your plan has no room left, the files stay on this PC.
• If your plan does not include uploads, Capture processes the files on this PC only.

Pausing a batch

While a batch runs, the Queue shows Pause Capture and Cancel. See Capturing Telemetry.

Issues

Files that could not be processed or uploaded live in Issues. Nothing is deleted: the files stay on disk.

Each issue gives its reason. Examples:

• No complete laps — you left the session before crossing the line
• Only pit laps — every lap started or ended in the pits
• Incomplete telemetry — the session was cut mid-lap
• File too large, or too many laps for one session
• Upload rejected — your plan does not take more uploads right now

Actions

• Retry — In view on each row. Use Retry all for every issue at once.
• Set aside — In the row menu. Moves the file out of Issues. Use Set all aside for every issue.
• Copy report — In the row menu. Copies a report of the problem to the clipboard.

Restoring files you set aside

Files you set aside stay on disk. Issues shows how many you set aside, for example 3 set aside · show. Open that list and click Restore to bring a file back.

History

History lists the sessions already in your account.

Row actions

• Analyze — On the row. Opens the session in Capture. See Analyze.
• Delete from cloud… — In the row menu. Removes the session and its telemetry from your account. The original file on this PC stays. This cannot be undone.
• Process again… — In the row menu. It asks first and says what it replaces. It deletes the session from your account and from this PC, then puts its original files back in the Queue. The original file must still be on this PC.

Process again is safe. It refuses before it deletes anything if the original files are gone, or if they would rebuild fewer laps than you have.

Sorting

Sort History by Recent, Oldest, Best lap or Most laps. Typing a search keeps the sort you picked.

Tips

• Let Capture process new sessions — Use the Queue for older files
• Check Issues from time to time — Home shows when a file needs a decision
• Do not delete telemetry files by hand while Capture runs — use Set aside instead
