New way to do custom POI warnings in TomTom 5 & 6

Ah I have 2 map folders on the device, should I turn any warnings for that one off?

Cancel that, they are switched off :D

How do I best work round this then?

As you have two map folders have you been putting the warnings into the correct map folder and is this map selected as the current active map? (Change Preferences/ Manage maps/ Switch Map) - then configure the warnings.
Each map will contain its own POI Warning set-up file so it is quite possible you have been putting the files in the wrong map? - or have you still got ov2 files from a previous install in the current map folder - but have been looking in the wrong map folder for the POI files - Mike

I am 100% certain Ive been working in the right folder (GB only) and all old poi's have been removed only using the latest poi's downloaded from here. (speed defined) done it several times now with the same result.

The only thing I could see wrong with any of the files etc was the ogg sample rate set to 16000Hz - once we put the correct files on the device at 22050Hz it worked no problem - Mike

Can you post the single file warning again, the links down for the download, thanks

I set the single file camera poi, warn when its near and choose the sound, some alarm, and then turn off the poi in enable disable poi. This then still warns me when i approach a camera, displays on the screen and the siren sounds. This is because i dont want it to display all the cameras all over the place etc.

Will this still work like this, with the modified method here?

Which one are you after?
If you PM me with your email address and which one you want (original PGPSW "computer" voice, Ray Flanagan's "Liz", TTS, etc.) I'll send it to you.

Yes it will still work if you set it up as per instructions
