For those interested, go back to post #21 to download the new PersonalPOI.db3 file and the optional POI.db3 file.

Have finally worked out through trial and error that the PersonalPOI file cannot be greater than 200 categories in total. Otherwise it greys out the POI button and therefore disables the display of all POIs on our map.

So have ended up with a number just shy of that.


If people just only want most of the custom POIs, but more importantly updated cameras (refreshed up to April 2014), then just download and reload (via SD Card) the new PersonalPOI file and the import process will overwrite the old and replace with new Personal POIs.


With the matching POI.DB3 file, only POI categories within FOOD, MOTOR & PUBLIC TRANSPORT folder have been added into the Master "All Categories" List.

NOTE: Please follow the instructions carefully in the original post #21. I will only be interested in answering any real problems with the file I uploaded. Both files installed work perfectly on the latest map.

Brilliant, downloading both now, thanks for sharing your hard work aussietig

Edit: Looks like adding the POI.DB3 makes the ISO a few MB over fitting on a 700MB CD. Are there any files I can delete such as one of the language zip files from \speech\parts\ to free up a few MB so i can burn it to a CD? Mainly because I've used these CD's before and had no trouble with them being read on the RNS510....

Otherwise I can burn to DVD

[aussietig]

I wouldn't bother! But no harm trying deleting those other language zip files, to keep it under 700MB (CD capacity) and see if it will still work.

It's all bl00dy trial and error!


Have never had any problems using DVD+R with imgburn writing @ 1 x speed.

But probably a b!tch to find these disks when you're feeling high and dry.

Thanks, I've taken out the Portuguese language zip file and burnt to CD and will see how I go... can't hurt to try.

Many thanks again, aussietig, for your great work. Pity VWA can't take a leaf from your book.

aussietig,
From one without the patience, the time, not to mention the technical ability, many, many thanks for your continued support.
