This is a great app and you should be very proud of yourself.
Thank you Torg

I got close to the end on a Windows Phone 8.1 "store app" (XAML) and then I noticed that the app can't run under the lock screen.. Microsoft removed this feature, but not from the Windows Phone 8.1 "silverlight".
So I have wasted a lot of time being frustrated with xaml (it's really terrible).
Now I'm torn. Redo in silverlight or wait for wp10..

For those that wanted a windows phone version here is a minimalist version. Just a single transponder and no results or settings page (just the last session). Transponder 00000 is spectate.
If you have any problems downloading/accessing/installing the beta you may need to PM me the email you have associated with your windows phone.

Once you confirm that it's working I'll push it out to the public store.
(Android wins the ease of beta award. iOS loses so hard it's not even funny, you have to get approval for beta apps now...)

I had a silly bug that made only specate work on windows phone.
Fixed that and added the full settings page. I also added a results page, just placeholder for now. Will add functionality to it soon.
updated version can be found here. To get beta access you have to PM me your windows phone store associated email

Tested the latest WP version today, It works now in "Transponder" mode on the transponder number entered.
I noticed a few things
1. It will call out in seconds the time you cross the loop since you where last on the track. She will say one thousand two hundred blah blah blah
2. Listed laps favour the oldest laps and scrolling down will not stick, it just bounces back to the oldest lap times on the top.
Great work Torg, your the first developer to support WP in RC I recon.

I started converting the server code over to be a plugin based architecture, this will allow for other decoders to be supported in the future. I'm also getting rid of the graph on the main page, moving it into another form for off line analysis.
Contemplating how to display the "live practice" view better...
It too could become plugin based or the viewer could be just another client program that subscribes to spectate mode and then does whatever it wants with the data.... Post to REST api on some web server somewhere, show it in a windows 8 "store app" with touch support, feeds it to something that creates lots of large windows per racer with yellow background

Attached is the source code for the portable C# lite client (command line, works on mono) <250 lines of code.
If you want text to speech for windows that would be easy to add. Attached the source code for that as well.
The "protocol" is extremely simple, just json strings going back and forth. Which you would see within 30 seconds of wireshark (or less).
BTW: I just realized I posted this in the electric on-road area, which is probably not the right home for this thread, so if you're a moderator reading this please move it to a better location..
