Very informative video Jasper. I never realised the variety of training/entertainment options that came with the Tacx software.

Very comprehensive review and instructions. Take care Jasper!

Thanks for showing the additional features with the Tacx training app. I like it especially with the Import GPS feature.

Great review Jasper. Is there any way you can get a Wahoo Kick r and the climb and do a workout review comparison? Which one feels more immersive between the two?

That is a big fan! I guess its time to upgrade😊

Helpful video, just what I was looking for. Will try this out this week as don't think zwift is worth the monthly subscription now.

Thanks Jasper for the desktop review. How about the mobile app that Tacx has out there? I wonder what the Neo capabilities are when limited to mobile data using only a smart phone or IPad.

Thanks Jasper from Toronto👍

Hi Jasper, i use TrainerRoad on my Neo, but i think ime gone try Tacx as well. Where did you get that big fan??

Waiting for my 2T to arrive, can’t wait to try it

I hope that you get to show many more videos from TDA and that there is a lot of the famous ones. From that point of view, I think its much better than Zwift. Also, the films are smooth. I don't know why it was so laggy on your computer. Lets hope your videos help get more users to TDA. That will increase the number of films and development.

I like Sufferfest for an intense structured training ride. Zwift is best for a longer Fondo style ride. It’s cool to get insensitives for miles like earning a new kit.

Hi Jasper, thanks for the videos. Can you ride the videos in ergo mode without changing gear?

I will use it! With this awesome video, you just showed that you are as good as GCN! Maybe some of your videos are a lot better😌 man, i need to ride with you and you show me some tricks haha

I am using Kinomap, same idea but users can upload their own rides (movies and gps data) so others can ride them too. I have used Zwift and Fulgaz before too.

De film is wel erg stoterig? Is dat ook bij de 720p versie?

Great video! would you update with cloud setting in order to explain "community" features settings and MP?

Jasper, Do you have the advanced tacx software ?? And what are the differences with the basic software of tacx ??

great video

Also when I go to the filters for the film, I don’t see no where to pair anything like my power meter or anything, I’m on my phone and not around my tacx right now, I’m just trying to see all the options you just showed from my phone . Nice video man

Yo! How is your Neo for sprinting on? Mine (and alot of others by the sounds of it) has problems when you open up a sprint, the turbo can't quite keep up and it feels like the wheel is slipping. As you're a sprinter you might have noticed it/know a fix, does yours do the same?

is that the canyon aeroad ora another bike?

Thanks for video !! Is there an option for streaming video or do you have to down load Soon fill hard drive with them unless you keep deleting

From where you have taken that bottom fan

I don't think it was a lag from network connectivity since the vid was downloaded first. Probably requires a higher spec GPU considering he selected 1080P. I think it would improve with 720P.

I usually use zwift in the summer , and I rarely train inside when the weather get a bit cold I love the cold :) , the tacx software looks good ,I'll give it a try. thank you for the awesome video brother.

Also I just clicked on a film just to see and then I quit it, but it’s not showing up in my activity’s, do I got to actually complete the whole film ride for it to show up in my activity’s

That thing for your phone and to keep the bike dry is what I need …

Hi ... can you please advise if I can create workouts within the Tacx App and download them to my Tablet to use via Bluetooth with my Tacx Flux Smart 2 ... but offline? Guess there are lots of indoor cyclists out there who have home gyms or man caves that are not WiFi accessible?

Hoe heb je de tacx verbonden met je laptop?

could you show how to set up for smaller tires like 20-inch tires?

Is it possible to do our own workout session without erg mode?

Hey Jasper! thanks for the video! I would like to ask you, if you only want a free ride but also watching the "boring panel" as you said, is it possible? I mean, not design a workout but only take a free ride but recording watts, cadence and so on... With the tablet or iPhone app it is possible, but I was trying it in my laptop and I can´t. Thanks a lot!

Interesting..

The Tacx Desktop App does not recognize my simulator. Does anyone know how to make it work? I can connect to the Tacx Android App normally. Only on the notebook I can't.

i already downloaded the lake kasumigaura last night come on today shows it downloaded but i can't play it when i click on ride it says ride from cloud ugh ...

Hoe verbindt jij je tacx met je laptop via een ant dongle?

Sorry one more question, when doing the the films you have to change gears to make it easer or harder just like real world right, or is this some type of erg mode, because when I climb of course I change gears outside, is it the same way when doing the films and climbing

No se puede competir como en otras aplicaciones ?

Cycling Fanatics!!! Aye I’m back from my exams and retreat haha

Can you upload and do everything you just did from your phone, i didn’t see subscription on my phone, also can I use the tacx for the resistance but use my own power meter to the power and send it to my head unit or not, does everything need to come from the trainer

Hi Jasper and all other, i am wondering. Is it possible to connect a guest account at my Desktop app? That way my neighbour can put his bike on my Flux 2 and also get a ride in without showint it on my Garmin/Strava account.

The movie on the App we've to download every time we ride ?

It would be nice if they had filmed the footage at a MUCH higher frame rate. Not sure why they would record it at what looks like 30fps known it would be played much slower than that when someone’s cycling the route.

What does a "power workout" entails? Is the objective to keep an X amount of power during a certain period of time?

Does this work offline

Can you pair any other brand smart trainer? Like a wahoo?

Is it possible to create gps file in Tacx and use it with Google Street View ?

Hi Jasper, I have a serious problem with the Neo and the video rides. I have been riding the tacx Fortius, with the downhill help, for years with a lot of RLV videos. I have complained to TACX that the downhill feel in the videos is not the same as downhill on Zwift. I used to ride from the top of Galibier to the bottom of the Alpe with my Fortius. This is useless with the NEO. Tacx even suggested that I pull the power to the Neo when riding downhill. Could you please try selecting a video ride with a lot of ups and downs and let me know what your experience is. Especially the feel on a long downhill. To me the downhill help of the Neo is simply too much.

my tacx app is not showing the calories burned live and it used to.

Jasper, Weet jij ook toevallig hoe het zit als ik mijn hartslag band verbonden heb maar als ik een nieuwe workout wil maken dan staat er geen hartslag meter? hoor t wel.

cam u do movie with workout?

Will this work with Strava ?

It is unfortunate, that when you create your workout, that Tacx has chosen to have you caluculate out the percent of your FTP before entering it into the workout creation software. It might be better to have your FTP known by the software and the workouts default off from that and then you adjust accordingly depending on your workout intentions.

I’d like to have structured training like on trainer road, but when doing this it doesn’t show real movie.

Is this a Boeing motor turbine ? 😂

it seems so laggy, tho!

Why do you have your face so close to the camera?😁

I gave up on Tacx software years ago. They really don't have good support when it comes to software. I have a NEO and I tried the Desktop app, free version, and right from the get go I had a problem with one video that had a cobble section in it. I don't ride using road feel but the video had power glitches in that section designed for road feel and was not rideable. When Tacx introduced TTS 1 & 2 neither of those programs worked so they dropped it and Tacx would not refund the large amount of money I spent for that software. I vowed never to give Tacx any more of my money. I did buy the NEO trainer because I knew from previously owning 2 trainers Tacx can make a good trainer but they need to stay away from software. In my opinion real life videos don't run realistically on the NEO especially in the descends, they speed up super fast. And even though they claim HD quality it's 720p and that is hard on the eyes when the video is only moving at 10 frames or less per second. Gradients are another issue and the constant up/down up/down has me using my shifters in an unnatural way just so I can maintain some level of consistent cadence. Another bad thing about their subscription service is you download the videos which is slow and takes up a massive amount of space on you PC. I know memory is cheaper these days but if you do other things with your PC you may need that space at some point. I don't know why they can't just stream the videos with a Windows app and use another app on the phone to control things. I know you put some work into this video Jasper but the fuller story is it's not as stellar as you make it seem, thanks for your effort.

Were you using this App when Garmin scratched it and everybody lost the ability to use all those gigabytes of videos they downloaded? Pretty cool Garmin doesn't care about all that space you used up on your PC only to have to do it all over again ain't it.

This guy sounds like pewdiepie

Zwift 👍

I’m taking a “poll” on trainers and software and welcome all your inputs..Please;

U

Next be 1st that make video about baby proofe your smart trainer station. So that baby on move can’t put his/her fingers on rotating things.☝🏻😗🤔🧐🚴🏻‍♂️🏩😞😢

I tried to warn people about this software when it first was introduced and sure enough, look what is happening. All those super large files of data people downloaded onto their PC, can't be used because Tacx has removed the videos. Something to do with GDPR. This isn't the first time Tacx has implemented training options into their programs and did not get the proper licenses or authorizations and the users got screwed. They did this in TTS software with Google maps licensing. I believe in the early days the reason we had so many issues with Windows compatibility was because they worked around the EULA with Microsoft. I don't trust this company when it comes to software. Now it's looking like you guys will have to wait 6 months before getting new videos. By the way I got kicked from their Facebook group for telling the truth so if you go complain just know you may get banned.

FulGaz is better

why tacx software is so bad? virtual maps are antinatural resistance. The inertia tacx hasn't been informed?

Sorry, I switched off as soon as you opened your mouth. :(
