A free CamGeoPlayer alternative — in your browser, and it does more
CamGeoPlayer is a free Windows app that reads GPS from dashcam videos and plots the route on a map. dashcamigo does that in your browser and adds speed and G-force charts, synchronized cameras, automatic trip grouping and clip export with GPS retained. CamGeoPlayer remains a focused offline viewer; dashcamigo covers a broader review workflow without a download.

There is no installer: the official download is a zip that you unpack and run. Its official page lists Beta 1.1, dated January 30, 2024.
