    I cannot for the life of me either get the German VW site to work, or even the Skoda one with the map portal has one as well. It seems to spit them out in entirely different files. Either putting the folder or the files directly onto an empty SD card comes up with nothing in the update POI search. If I put music files etc it sees them fine.

    I uploaded safety camera POIs tonight to my MY16 Scout.
    I used the german VW Nav Companion site to create the POI files.
    Nav Companion .

    After selecting your POI file to upload, don't forget to check the box in the next section - "Bei Annäherung an diese POIs informieren", if you want to have a warning sound when near your POI

    After a few unsuccessful attempts, the trick is to first unzip the file created by the VW Discover site and then copy the PersonalPOI folder (with sub folders) and the metainfo2 file onto the root directory of your SD card or USB stick - see screen shot.
