XCCR with Petrel3 HP sensors missing data

Hi,

Today I downloaded all my dives (since the Shearwater upgrade) with the latest qt-6 nightly, including the libdivecomputer log (see attached). I’ve added all of them to give logs with different tanks, gas mixes and usage.

Sunday I had a dive with a “close call” (feel free to ask details off-list) where I actually had to do a bailout on two gasses. So the log from 03/12 should give a “nice” view of a CCR dive. Unfortunately Shearwaters own application makes it very hard to read the details that, especially now, I would like to look into.

Hopefully this data helps a bit more.

After I was able to download the logs, I noticed that the HP sensors were not included as they were in the Shearwater application. Jef has been so kind to commit a change that solves this in libdivecomputer (https://github.com/libdivecomputer/libdivecomputer/commit/78373d827be59ade15446c74ad660580fb04de73). All pressure data is now included the libdivecomputer log (two HP sensors and the transmitters in my case) as you can see in the attached output.

The patch was also included in the latest Subsurface nightly and I tried to import the dives directly, but I’m seeing the same issues with these dives (and newer ones).

In the past I’ve done dives with 4 transmitters and this seems to be available in the log and plotted correctly (when the tanks are assigned to the right sensor). I would expect to see something similar when I would import a dive from my Petrel3.
