I received the camera and i started my experiment to extract GPS points from video files. "Virb Edit" already uninstalled, the application can't do that operation (crazy, is Garmin made...).
Sw:
- Garmin Dash Cam Player (not officially compatible with Dash Cam 55 and the new 2017 models - another crazy thing by Garmin...) - used to generate GPX files
- Registrator Viewer 6.0.0.22 - everybody here know the potential of this application

Open "Garmin Dash Cam Player" and check/select path for video files from which to extract GPS points.
Close "Garmin Dash Cam Player".
Open the folder and copy the video files in it.
Open again "Garmin Dash Cam Player". It will show video files on the left column. Select one by one and export GPX files.
Definitively close "Garmin Dash Cam Player".
The GPX files are saved in same folder of video files.
Open "Registrator Viewer" and add all the video files.
It will make group of the trip with GPS data.
I don't know why each video recorded by the Dash Cam 55 is only 1 minute long (in the Dash Cam 20 is about 4 minutes); if the trip will be hours, extraction of GPX will be exhausting. Camera is good stuff, but software support horrible. Thank you Garmin, for 199€ you could make a little effort...
