Do you plan to support other file formats when saving trace data with the LightClient software?  
If possible, it would be great if you could support a generic CSV format (I use SavvyCAN) that can be read by another CAN analysis software.

Could you please post here an example file in CSV format ?

In my PC environment, I could only play back data saved in GVRET log (also in csv format).  
Any format that can be opened by SavvyCAN is fine, but preparing multiple CAN adapters is extremely troublesome, so it would be helpful if I could analyze the data obtained with USBtoCAN.

I’m sure there are other people besides me who want to analyze vehicle-side CAN data. It would be great if simple tasks such as identifying IDs and data could be done without the need for expensive equipment.

The SavvyCAN I used was the V208.

I am having the same issue. I agree that supporting other file formats would be a super helpful feature. Did you ever find a workaround to this? I am trying to upload my trace data to SavvyCAN.
