Export/Import dive via UDCF causes data loss

Post by weppos »

I noticed this behavior in the past, but I never took the time to report it.

Exporting a Suunto dive from MacDive via UDCF and/or importing it via UFCF/UDDF causes the alerts and mix information to get lost.
Here's a screenshot of the same dive as imported from my Suunto and after exporting/importing it via UDCF.

It's likely the issue is with the importer, as the information is still present in the UDCF file.

If you want to export and re-import data then you should use the MacDive XML format, not UDCF, which is missing all sorts of other information.
