Years ago I had some PLX modules and gauges to get IAT's for example but what about today? Is there a good solution for getting external sensor data into a single log? I wanted the ease of not worrying about matching up timelines. One thing I've been wanting to measure is crank case pressures.

I believe matching up timelines is the only way.

When I make videos with gauges that take logs from both AIM and MHD data, I typically skip the log consolidation part and just adjust the offset in racerender. It is a bit faster, and you don't need to worry about differences in log resolution.

Like in below video, I combined logs from MHD, AIM and an oil pressure log I had manually entered using a video taken of the gauge installed in the car. :grinning:
