Having downloaded the latest camera database I find that there are a number of duplications with camera warnings coming in multiples! Gatso, Gatso, Gatso...!!

I have the multiple database i.e all types of cameras and sometimes a position shows up as several cameras. Is there a way to look at and edit this database to remove duplicates?

If you have only installed one version of the PGSWorld database, you should not be getting lots of duplicates (otherwise loads of other people would have complained too!). Are you sure that you haven't either installed more than one version of this database, or that you have got TomTom's own speed camera database installed too?

It is quite simple to look at the list of installed POI categories to check whether you have got more than one, and to temporarily disable them,... (Change Preferences / Manage POI / Enable/Disable POI.

If you are sure you only have one category file installed, you can look through, examine and delete individual entries by: Change Preferences / Manage POI / Delete POI.
But again, I don't think duplicates in the single file is actually your problem.

You can also check entries by "Browse Map".
Tap "Options" at the bottom of the map page, check "Points of interest" is ticked, and then use the "POI" button at the bottom of THAT page to turn on or off the view of individual categories.

Don't forget you can check how things are working by setting up an "A to B" route past a camera site, and then running an animated demo of the route, to see and hear what happens.

Finally, why not post here an example of a place where you are getting multiple alerts, so someone else can double check for you.
