  <ul>
  <li>Add your video and data files to the DashWare project like usual: synchronize, set up your gauges how you like, etc</li>
  <li>Once you are ready to export, create a new “Green Screen” gauge. In this new, empty gauge add a Filled Rectangle component with the

  <li>Put this new gauge behind all the other gauges in your project and it will cover up your source video.</li>

  <p>Now if your can't get your footage into VIRB for some reason, you could try to import the TCX/GPX and see if it will just output the gauges.

Export the video and you'll then have a chroma keyed gauges plate to drop into FCP.</p>

  You can use the free [Dashware](http://www.dashware.net/) app, which is normally used to overlay telemetry data directly on footage.

  So you don't really need FCP.
  
  VIRB Edit for Mac software version 3.6.0
  <http://www8.garmin.com/support/download_details.jsp?id=6593>
  
  Youtube instructions (for Windows but should work the same).
  Add SPEEDOMETER DATA on GoPro How To Overlay Speed, RPM, GPS in Video FOR FREE
  
  Now if your can't get your footage into VIRB for some reason, you could try to import the TCX/GPX and see if it will just output the gauges. If that doesn't work, create a chromakey video with a blank green or blue screen and import data to add the gauges. Export the video and you'll then have a chroma keyed gauges plate to drop into FCP.
