Ash10's Camera Manager Software

There is hope yet for those running Vista.

I first came on this thread on 7th April 2007 asking for advice to get CM working on Vista and after many attempts - IT NOW WORKS.

Although i have tried several times, the post recently left by Ash10 stating all Vista owners to refer to page 32, prompted me to have another go.

I have tried this many times and it hasn't worked, but this time it did.
Will keep my fingers crossed it continues.

The problem is that there are many different Vista's and all can be set up very differently with security, so what works for one may not work for another.

All i can say is keep trying - don't give up.

I have a Nuvi 660 which previously had Garmin cameras and a custom POI file for Shell Petrol.

Have downloaded PGPSW camera database, and Ash10's Camera Manager.

Followed all destructions, and removed Garmin alerts. 2 questions if I may:

What ever I attempt to do the camera icons and alerts all work, but the additional Shell poi does not! (it is there and I can select a shell garage to navigate to, but no icon or alert if merely approaching Shell in normal routing)

The info bar at the top of screen shows camera alerts in format "Mobile -123456#40" Can this be formatted to remove the camera ID code and just show "Mobile 40". Will editing the csv work?

Thanks
David

P.s. Oh, and what is the going rate for donations for Camera Manager?

Another way to explain it is this. The Speed Camera files are exactly the same as normal (fuel, shop etc) POIs except that POILoader treats them slightly differently because of the names in the files. Words such as GATSO, MOBILE, SPECS etc makes POILoader set up alerts.

POILoader doesn't do this to normal POIs unless you choose the Custom option in POILoader where it'll ask you for the alert parameter you wish to set for each POI. Placing the POI file in a folder with a number in the title will also cause POILoader to set the alert speed to match the number in the folder title. Hence you get alerts from non-speed camera POIs such as T-Mobile and Q8 Petrol Stations...

In the past you must have taken some positive action to make the Shell Fuel POI alert you. The option to have them displayed all the time was only introduced with the 7xx series. To have them alert with a tone and the red banner requires some setting up to achieve.

Thanks again for the response.

I don't recall doing anything clever at the time. However, I can only imagine that maybe Garmin alerts was covering it somehow, which of course is now turned off to avoid duplication of the custom speed alerts.

I will try your work around which (thanks to your explanation of how POI Loader and Camera Manager identify speed related POIs) sounds eminently plausible.

I will let you know the results but I have every confidence that it will work

Much appreciated

David

Tried the remove protected mode in IE7 and this seems to have fixed the issue, re Vista, CM downloaded and set up. Thanks for help

I have a Kenwood DNX5220BT unit, I have not yet worked out how to install POI to it (Only had the unit for 2 weeks or so). if anyone could me some directions on how to install these it would be great - i could then load in the camera POI and make use of this camera manager software (which looks brill). The Kenwood does not have an SD slot.

Thanks

Neil

Hi and welcome.

First of all does the Kenwood unit accept 3rd party POIs? If not, it will be impossible to add the Speed Camera Database.
