TCX to GPX Converter

Convert your TCX files to GPX before importing them into Vectora.

TCX (Training Center XML) files can be converted to GPX when you need a clean GPS track for import into Vectora. The main goal is to preserve timestamps and the coordinate stream so the overlay aligns correctly.

If you want a predictable, scriptable conversion, `gpsbabel` can usually convert TCX to GPX: `gpsbabel -i gtrnctr -f activity.tcx -o gpx -F activity.gpx`

Some TCX exports (especially from indoor sessions) may omit GPS points entirely. In those cases, the GPX output will either be empty or contain only timestamps; Vectora overlays that depend on location will not behave as expected.

After exporting GPX, sanity-check the first/last timestamps, the start location, and any long pauses. Cleaning obvious artifacts before import generally produces smoother maps and more accurate time-based widgets.
