CycliqPlus Beta – Overlay your Activity Metrics

The new CycliqPlus Beta makes overlaying your activity metrics easy and straight forward! We are actively working on this throughout the Beta to try and make it more seamless, so if you have any issues please reach out.

Select a video

You can do this in a couple different ways:

  1. Open the video editor by clicking Create Video
  2. Click Import Video and select a video using Finder (MacOS) or Windows Explorer (Windows).

You can also drag and drop your video from Finder, Windows Explorer or elsewhere, into the CycliqPlus window once you have opened the video editor.

OR

  1. From the Devices page of the app, select your Fly device
  2. Choose a video from the Footage page
  3. Click the pencil icon in the bottom right of the video player to open it in the video editor

Connect Strava

  1. Click on the settings cog in the top right corner of the app
  2. Click the Connect with Strava button

OR

  1. In the video editor click on Metrics Overlay
  2. Open the Data Source drop down
  3. Select Strava. If you haven’t already connected Strava, you will be prompted

Auto matched activities

CycliqPlus will try to find the activity that matches your video based on your Strava Activities. If an activity is found that overlaps your video but isn’t in the right timezone, or we don’t find an activity at all, we’ll make that clear!

Matched activities do not guarantee that your data will perfectly align with the video off the bat. The best way to improve this is to sync the time with your Fly device using CycliqPlus mobile when you start your ride. We have a great method to sync the data to your video if you click the Take me there button when you find a match. Otherwise, open Metrics Overlay > Data Source > Advanced Activity Sync.

If there isn’t a match you will be prompted to open the date picker with the Take me there button. Here you can find an activity by selecting a date, or date window to search in. You can also get here by opening Metrics Overlay > Data Source > Strava Activities.

Syncing video with your metrics

The team at Cycliq think the two best ways to sync your video and metrics are as follows, and in order!

  1. If you have cadence data and you freewheel in your video at all, listen for the sound of freewheeling and match that point to 0 cadence! Our sync window will show metrics over the map, so you can view the cadence at each point in your activity
  2. If you don’t have cadence data, the next best thing to do is find a position in your video that you can match to the map. This is easiest when coming to a complete stop, but can be done at any point in your video essentially!

Important note: if you attempt to sync and find that your video and metrics still look slightly out of time, you can fine tune the offset of the metrics to the video. You’ll see it adjust live while you’re playing the video in the editor. To fine tune activity data offset go to Metrics Overlay settings, then the Data Source dropdown.

Exporting and sharing

After you’re happy with the video in the editor, you can adjust your export settings in the Video Export Settings menu, and when you’re happy click the Export Video button.

You’ll be able to grab the file from your file explorer afterwards, or watch the video back in CycliqPlus!
