Hi guy's.
Is there any way to convert a poi with .gpi file extension to csv or gpx as a freind has a list of poi's on his nuvi & I would like to add tthem to my i3 but poi loader doesn't recognise the file?
I have tried poi edit & poiconvert but neither recognise the file format.

Thanks.

11oydee.

Thanks MaFt.
Sorry for seeming dumb but do you mean just copy it to the poi folder on the sd card?
If so will it [i3] read two .gpi files as the PGPScamera database already shows as a poi.gpi?

Ta.

yes, you can have as many *.gpi files as you want and it will read all of them.

remember though that if you give the .gpi file to someone else and it includes the speed camera database then you're breaching copyright. however, as you stated you already had the camera database on yours then you should be fine (just don't give yours to anyone else ;) )
