version 26.1.6 (01/28/2026)

  • Display of racer statistics on the race results page.
    The total number of racers and the number of racers who have finished the race or have a set status (DNS, DNF, DSQ) are now visible.
  • Disabled Start button for closed or completed races.
    A closed or completed race (even if it has individual starts) no longer shows the Start button for racers who have not started.
  • Fix of the batch script for installing Python 3.10.19
    In the previous version, an infinite loop occurred – this has been fixed.
  • Fix in JavaScript functions so that they do not use cache for AJAX requests.
    If the Print function was executed without a connection to RaceMeter (but with internet access), an HTML page informing about the missing connection to the device was loaded instead of the list of report definitions. Due to enabled caching, even after reconnecting to RaceMeter the cached HTML page was returned, which resulted in HTML report printing not being available. The only workaround was manually clearing the browser cache.
    This issue is now fixed.
  • New page for managing the RaceMeter system time.
    Previously, RaceMeter automatically synchronized the system time when connected to the internet. It is now possible to choose whether automatic synchronization should be used. If it is disabled, the following options are available:
    • manual one-time time synchronization (if RaceMeter is connected to the internet),
    • or manual setting of the RaceMeter system time according to the specified date and time.
  • Fix of wifi router configuration update after RaceMeter startup.
    After device startup, various information is updated in the wifi router – for example the IP address when RaceMeter is configured as a slave, based on the client ID. The process also includes copying a batch script to the wifi router, which reconfigures the internet routing depending on the type of connection (ethernet, wifi hotspot, LTE modem).
    However, in the new version of the Raspbian operating system (Bookworm), remote copying of this batch script implicitly requires newer security algorithms that are not supported by the wifi router used in RaceMeter. As a result, the copy operation failed and subsequent steps (e.g. changing the router IP address) were not executed.
    The process has now been fixed by using a compatible security algorithm for copying the file.
  • Standalone installation of the HTTPS certificate for racemeter.xyz.
    Due to the planned shortening of HTTPS certificate validity (from the original one year to tens of days) and the fact that the certificate was previously installed only with a new system version, a standalone certificate installation has been added.
    Just like new versions of the RaceMeter system are available at racemeter.eu, a package with the current HTTPS certificate will also be available there. This and later system versions will, after device startup (if RaceMeter is connected to the internet), automatically check for a newer certificate and download and install it if available.
  • Fix in HTML report definitions displaying race results.
    For races with laps, when a racer had multiple laps, the window displaying the list of laps was too tall, which often prevented convenient viewing of all data.
    The height of this window is now limited and the list of laps can be scrolled normally.
