[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr ignoring tracks, only converting paths

Hi,

I was attempting to simplify my Google Earth KML file and found ogr2ogr
mentioned on the internet.
When I run it through the program, ogr2ogr seems to ignore everything that
is a "Track" according to Google Earth. Only entries that are a "Path" are
converted. They are all GPS logs I collected over many years with different
devices. Most modern tracks have been collected with smartphones and they
are all ignored.

Is there an easy way to prevent or circumvent this?

Also, ogr2ogr flattens my KML by removing all folders and the general
hierarchy. This is annoying, but I could deal with it if I convert folders
separately.

BG,

Manuel
