Co-Pilot Live v8.2. HTC Desire. I have downloaded the pgpsw database 'Consolidated By Type' as recommended. I get camera alerts for most cameras but not all. The variable speed cameras on the M1 north or Nottingham do not show and some mobiles, that show on TomTom, are not shown. Can anyone help  |

Yes. Just downloaded new database & cannot see mobiles at all. When in Co-Pilot, Settings, POI Display,Currently Displayed POIs I have checked Speed Cameras. There isn't a setting for PGPSW. Should I create a folder "Speed Cameras" in EU, UK Ireland,save, User Places or Check another box in Co-Pilot. Thank you. |

I reckon thats because the alerts youre getting are for the CoPilot speed cam database, not the PGPSW database. |

I also think you are getting the Co-Pilot speed cams.
Backup your SD card
Delete all speed cams in Co-Pilot directory
Also delete poi_uk.safetycam directory from CoPilot-EU-UK-Save-User_places (if you don't the Co-Pilot safety cams will re-install)
Copy PGPSW speed cams into Co-Pilot-Save directory one type of camera at a time and run Co-Pilot.
Repeat for each type of speed cam.
Hope this helps, if not post again. _________________ HUAWEI P30 Pro (new edition) with Speedtrap Alert & alcatel1 for SatNav

Thanks for your help guys. Duddy got it right. I had deleted the Co-Pilot Cameras but still could not see pgpsw cameras. When I deleted all previously downloaded cameras & downloaded each type one by one into Save, starting Co-Pilot each time, it worked fine. Thanks again
Just one further point - what happens when I update the pgpsw files ? Do you recommend that I erase all files & repeat the same procedure ? Thanks |

Yes
Delete all the PGPSW speedcam directories and install the updates one by one.
It's a little time consuming but you get used to it.
PS If you want to download any of the PGPSW free POI's the same method applies. _________________ HUAWEI P30 Pro (new edition) with Speedtrap Alert & alcatel1 for SatNav

Thanks again Duddy. Pity the download instructions do not include this on the pgpsw site. I've been spoilt by easy TomTom downloads so, as you say, it takes a bit longer. Cheers anyway. |
