Hello Christian,
Finally I'm not sure this will address my need; anyway here are some explanations:
This extension is generated when exporting stored activities from Garmin Connect http://connect.garmin.com/. Those files can then be uploaded back to my GPS device (Garmin Forerunner 310XT) and allow me to "compete" against/with a virtual partner (when redoing the same course)... When using other TCX files (generated from non-Garmin tools) the virtual partner does not start to run: I was assuming the position information itself was not enough, and some other information were missing; the speed...
Here is the specification guide: http://developer.garmin.com/schemas/tcx/v2/
The attached file "activity_205457812.tcx" is an actual file from GarminConnect. Unfortunately I do not have on the PC here the files I tried to convert last Week end...
No, it's not the point here.
Finally the speed extension tag does not seem to allow my Virtual Partner to be effective; some heading data seem to be more usefull... more informations later this week may be if I have the time to do some other testing...
I'll let you know which data definitely is required for my Garmin device (I have the feeling the heading tags TotalTimeSeconds / DistanceMeters / MaximumSpeed are required... TBC...)
Best regards,
S
