        hello, I find some information on scubaboard/community for
        converting files!

        I had a Scupabro-Alladin divecomputer (~699 dives) and now a
        Suunto-Zoop Novo.
        So I want to import the old files into program Suunto DM5
         >> can you help me?


    Subsurface has a tool which converts Scubapro's .slg  files to
    Subsurface's .xml format.
    You can find the tool smtk2ssrf
    
<https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/releases/download/continuous/smtk2ssrf-4.8.4-587-gf6ab84f13fde.exe>
    in the link (for windows).  It will create an archive in Subusurface
    format.
    The main question is:  Can DM5 import this file? DM5 can import
    archives in .xml format but I don't know if Subsurface's variations
    will be supported by DM5 importer.  Nevertheless you can give it a
    try, just be careful not to try it on your own divelog the first
    time (I would try the import on a brand new divelog and, if it
    worked well -or somehow well- would try on my divelog after making a
    backup copy of it, off course).

    Importing logs from other computers tends to be a very big drawback
    in hardware vendor's divelog programs (I don't actually know anyone
    doing it), as they try to get the customer "chained" to their products.
    This was the main reason I moved to Subsurface some years ago (or
    whichever other software you  can prefer),  programs which are not
    hardware dependent support almost all divecomputer on the market and
    most of their divelog formats.  E.g.  you could easily have all your
    dives, both aladin or Zoop registered in Subsurface and, if you
    change your computer to any other vendor in the future or simply
    borrow a divecomputer for a dive, you can still have your data merged.

    P.S.  I've tried your file and it is correctly imported to
    Subsurface, as far as I can see.

    Best Regards.

    Salva.


Hello Sylvia, Salva,


unfortunately this wont work easily. The XML formats supported by
subsurface and Suunto DM5 are different.
I had a similar problem once: importing one dive from DM5 in subsurface.

Sorry for the bad news
Chris
