Maps and POIs for Discover Media

[PeteC]

Here is my file including all the cameras in Australia (fixed, red light, point to point, mobile, etc) altogether 1912 map points. Created by POInspector software and POIs downloaded from poidb.com. Also added the POIs for Mcdonalds.

If you are struggling to import POIs to your Discover Media unit, try this. Download the zip file, unzip it and copy the PersonalPOI directory and the metainfo2.txt file onto your SD card then import it.

Thanks for the file, BUT I'm unsure of the benefit of having any mobile cameras included. What am I misunderstanding ?

Good work, thanks for sharing, I'll play around with POInspector when I get a chance, but the import file worked fine on my 2018 Golf Comfortline with 0821 MRM2 2017/18.

I had the same question when I saw the name, but then I read the description on poidb.com:

Mobile speed cameras are now being used in several states to reduce speeding on the roads. These cameras are set up in different locations that vary each day. This group of POIs gives locations where they are most frequently set up.

So at the end I decided that I want to know the frequent locations for mobile speed cameras. I know two locations nearby where I live, where the police stops couple of times per month. Better safe than sorry and it is only a couple of spots, 23 I think for whole NSW where I don't mind having an extra beep and an icon on the map.

Hi All,

I have been following this thread closely, however hoping someone can help. ive got a mk 7 Wolfsburg Hatch and it seems i am running the latest maps. I had this done while having some work done on replacing my mirrors at the same time.
My System Information is showing:

Device Part Number: 3Q0035846
Hardware: 820
Software: 0627
Nav Database: 5NA919866C
1010
MRM2 2018/19

The problem i now face though is i seem to have lost my traffic reports, which i enabled using OBD Eleven. When presing the traffic report button on the head unit "TMC" is now crossed out. Since having the new map update i checked to make sure the Traffic Report settings were correct in both OBDEleven and on the Discover Media Nav unit and am stumped as to why the reports arent showing anymore. I have read in a previous thread that the Map update P68 works fine with Traffic Reports. I have even downloaded the P68 map udpate (approx 24GB) however my understanding is map updates for my unit can only be done via the supplied SD card from factory, which only holds 8GB of data.

Hoping someone can please help with my dilemma. Would love to have TMC working again and unfortunately i dont have a backup of my previous maps stored anywhere. Cheers

I went back to previous version of map to get my TMC working again as TMC did not work for me either with MRM2 2018/19.

Thanks ArdiL. Will download the previous map from the link above and see whether TMC works again.

Yep as you had said, reverting back to the 0821 map revision brought back TMC. I have also read that the Map update from December 2017 also is working with TMC. I believe its the update before the latest P71 release.

Has anyone got a link or a back up for the ROW P68 maps (released December 2017) for the Discover Media Navigation MIB2 unit - Not Pro version, that i can test out.

The map update cannot be any bigger than 7.5 GB as this is the capacity of the OEM SD card we get from VW for our MIB2 head units.

Thanks again ArdiL, i did notice however that the TMC report directions are in German. Are you getting the same in your TMC reports.

See below.
