Ash10's Camera Manager Software

Having seen that a later camera file was available, I ran Camera Updater and it told me to load the new data.

This is where it all started to go wrong. App locked up all the time.
I tried a system restore to before I used the Camera Updater, still locked up. Great I thought, how am I going to track this down.?

Put the laptop back as it was. It is on XPH.

Then loaded POILOADER to my desktop (W2K), same problem.

Suddenly had an idea, as I keep the POIs in one folder and the cameras in another and I realised one replaces the other, and I was just trying to load the cameras.

Tried loading he POIs only, works fine.
Tried loading the cameras,.... locked up.

Anyone experienced this with the latest camera file download after conversion by the program.?

TIA

Further investigation.

POIs load fine on their own.
Cameras load fine on their own.
Cameras & POIs load fine as CSV.
Cameras converted to GPX with GPX converter.
POIs and those GPX files load fine.

Dragged camera zip file to Camera Updater (previous version), tried loading, locked up.

Ran new camera updater, it found and updated files, tried loading, locked up.

That is it for now, its late....

Hi, last night I used asshes program , it worked fine, then I THOUGHT I had a problem, POILoader seemed to lock up! Bu ti din't really, I decided to be patient and after many minutes it finally finshed. So try again and have a coffee while you are waiting. There seem to be many more Speedcams than my last download!

But the program seems great.

No it definately locks up, comes up with not responding.

This was all for info really as I have located the fault and can bypass it.

As it worked Ok, the very first time, I would *suspect* something different about the file, and how it ended up being converted.

Hi Weshgasman, look at my topic POIloader (I posted a new topic instead of a reply, silly me)

I take it that dragging a previously downloaded zipped db is not an option with this new beastie Ash?

If that was the case with my problem, I'd expect the bmp file to cause the same problem, no matter which program created the gpx files.

As long as I know of the problem, I can get around it easily. Whne the nect camera file is ready, I'll try again. The worry was 'what' had gone wrong, and how was I going to load in future.

1. Auto-reload feature is fixed.
2. Settings tab order is sorted.
3. GPX files now automatically regenerated following database update.

Enjoy! ;)

Thanks Ash,

unfortunalty the auto reload still doesn't work on my setup

Im i correct in thinking that this routine doesn't actually install as a program?

I have XP pro with SP2.

Any idea's?

Okay, it looks like there's a subtle difference in the way that XP and 2K handle filenames that contain spaces.

If you're running XP, either do as suggested above and rename the file, or wait until I can issue a fix later today 8)

Windows XP Pro SP2 works fine without renaming the file and with spaces in the path - D:\Garmin\Software\Camera Manager.exe

Beerbellybill999 - did you get the latest download and run it?

Request:

Can we have an option where CM quits after checking for an update if there is no new update? i.e. it only remains running in the tray when an update has been downloaded etc etc? Maybe with a 5 second pause so you can see it DID run and then quit.

PaulB2005 · Posted: Wed Jul 26, 2006 12:37 pm Post subject:

If you QUIT CM at anytime then the auto start registry entry is removed until you run CM again, so if like me like CM to run and then hit QUIT to close it it won't auto start next time.
