Dashware or the like

Hi Guys,
Does anyone here use Dashware or similar to get a gauge overlay on your videos etc?
I have been trying to use Dashware with a GoPro 5 Black, but I simply can not get it to work. The files work in QUIK, but when I try with Dashware it states no data.
So I am wondering what others use to capture data and then upload to Dashware? If not a GoPro, then what?
Cheers all
John

I use Garmin Virb - it comes with a gps built-in and has full support for all sorts of overlays.
Here is an example :

Thanks!
Do you know if there is the option to plug it into the intercom like I do with my GoPro?
Cheers

Garmin is no worse or particularly better camera.... it is pretty much the same class as latest go pros -I picked it precisely because it has built in support for all sorts of visualization of gps data ( gps speed ,track, altitude, climb rate etc etc ) - it is still just gps derived data so don’t expect miracles but there is no need for any syncing and it works out of the box.
Here is a sample of how to set up gps overlays

Thanks for that.
I have just learnt that my Garmin Aera500 mounted on the dash of my bird records data when I fly! So that may be my answer.
I will keep you posted.

Just an update for those watching at home - Not even the guys at GoPro can assist with my issues. How good is that! NOT!
Haven't managed to get to my bird for the data on the Garmin yet - hopefully this week.
Cheers

Finally I have given up on Dashware. RaceRender solved my issues and is actually really good!
Farewell Dashware. LOL!
