The 'Unofficial' Tacx Forum

TTS is end of life and no longer supported and in many cases, sold TTS and RLV right up until the day they ended support and turned off the license servers. So as long as there is no intent to market something derived from Tacx software, what owners of a licensed copy of the software decide to do wi...

According the software agreement you may use the purchased key on one computer. If you want to transfer the software to another computer there is no legal issue. When re-activating a key which is lost for some reason I also see no legal issues. Since each of us owns a legal copy and Tacx has public...

I setup my bike and when I start to pedal, in the first few turns, it feels like the drive chain jerks and very difficult to pedal. Is the chain jumping/skipping as you pedal? Keep in mind it is very rare for the cassette spacing of the Neo to be a dead on match with the rear spacing of your bicycl...

While we have a pair of the original v 1.0 Neo's, I have read of owners with similar feedback across all versions of the Neo, in fact my first Neo had a rumbling noise issue was replaced under warranty. If nobody here has any suggestions, I would suggest stopping by the Tacx Neo Owners Group on Face...

I thought I had read somewhere that one of the advantages of using the Microsoft development foundation for TDA was that it allowed Tacx to leverage Bing Maps. If that is the case, from the screen shots above, would sure seem to illustrate the old adage 'you get what you pay for'.

I really doubt that the manufacturers are rolling in the profits, as probably supply shortages are more likely a function of the impact the pandemic has had on global supply chains. Pre-pandemic, companies could easily depend on shipping a lot of stuff pretty much overnight via air freight or even d...

Sorry, another member has already taken possession,

I agree. For mobile and other small screen devices, it is a waste of time. I think you need at least a 42" 4K display to see any benefit. Yes, but both our now 2+ year old Samsung S9 Smartphones as well as our 3-4 year old Samsung tablet have the ability to 'cast' the view to our Smart TVs. I ...

Any ideas on how to stop it crashing please?! How about cancelling your subscription and try another company's app? Sorry, I don't have an answer for you but seems that if you have an open ticket, then you should be spamming the support inbox until someone starts to pay attention! I had been consid...

Having been using a premium subscription for Rouvy since February, I have really enjoyed the fact that while we have separate logons, I can add a couple family or friends and share the a single premium subscription. Having looked at the costs for a TDA subscription and perused a couple support artic...

I have a pair of Tacx Fortius white/blue handlebar controllers (stock image below) gathering dust since the end of February, when we moved to Rouvy. Now having recently installed Windows 10 Pro over the original Home edition, our two licensed instances of TTS are no more, thus we will never have nee...

I suspect you may be waiting for quite a long time for that response seeing as BKool exited the trainer business last November.

http://media.localmile.org/2020/06/IMG_1143.jpeg We have a slightly larger room with 2 trainers positioned so the window is to our left side and use the stands below with 50" Smart TVs: I might also suggest since you and your trainer are the only occupants, consider positioning the monitor in ...

Not sure if this will work for TTS 3, but I would suggest you read the the last 4-5 posts of the LAN RACING FORTIUS MULTIPLAYER thread.

While I cannot speak from experience, it does seem strange to me that TDA would not be able to control a current generation Smart Trainer via Bluetooth. It sounds to me as if TDA is actually connecting to the Wahoo as a power meter and not a Smart Trainer, thus the reason for the lack of change in r...

How do I move TTS4 to another computer? Note that you will need to scroll down the page to the named section.

And here I thought that was one of those expressions that was only used by movies or Steve Irwin.

I have the latest version of the dedicated Rouvy AR program and there does not seem to be any Reality (slope setting). Here are a couple of screen shots: https://www.lunicus.org/Forum/download/file.php?id=46 There is a fairly irritating grade popup street sign that appears each time there is a grad...

That is curious. I know that if you ride in Race mode, the Reality Level control is not present, but it should be in that settings menu in Training mode.

And this Reality Mode setting does not appear to be available for Rouvy AR - only for Rouvy Workouts (regular Rouvy). Curious, I am using Rouvy AR for Windows and I am able to edit the setting in training mode both before and during rides by clicking on the 'Settings' link button in the upper right...

I am pretty sure Rouvy AR went mainstream last month when they split out workout functionality from AR app into the dedicated workout app. When we started with Rouvy, we used the default video/view but did not like it so I changed the perspective 'me' thus we see the full view. Curious why you are d...

Sorry, I was referring primarily to apps for larger plan forms like tablets, laptops, or PC's. While there was a time where I was perfectly content using a legacy Bushido stand-alone with only the handlebar controller for a trainer workout, and I understand that there are a lot of people for which v...

It is a matter of having users become educated on how to use it. Yes, but apps that do not provide an immersive and intuitive user experience tend to die a slow death. Mobile apps playing on dinky screens is a whole other ballgame. I've never figured out how people are even interested in doing that...

Without a copy of the the license file from the shop where TTS is installed, you will not be able to get TTS running outlined on Lunicus TTS page. Your other option is to use the trainer with the original Fortius software as outlined here.

So assuming the prices is within my budget is the Flux a lot better that the Vortex and Flow and is there any known risk of the flow being dropped as a current product? Direct Drive will always offer a better training experience than a wheel on trainer. The Flux 2 is the current version so Flux/Flu...

Might want to check out Cycling Weekly's the Here are all the turbo trainers in stock in the UK right now article. With that, I would say because of demand, this is probably the worst of times to search for a new trainer as many retailers are out of stock and popular models are back ordered on all t...

The Tacx Cycling App for Android works with the legacy Bushido. As for TTS on an iMac, since you are running some kind of Windows emulator, why not use another PC/laptop and setup a virtual PC and clone the TTS instance to the virtual PC?

Depending on the age of the laptop, I suspect it has either an external VGA/SVGA connector or possibly display port. In either case there are reasonably inexpensive adaptors/converters available to make the connection.

Sorry, that was meant as tongue-in-cheek as it was me pointing out my own OCD tendencies.
