Ash10's Speed Camera Editing / Loading Software

Hi Ash10.
Well that's not too major.
At least they are appearing at about 2mph (when stuck in traffic) instead of within 5mph of the speed limit of the camera. A lot better. :D
I can live with that.
Once again, many thanks.

.. as for new fetures Ash

I'd still rather like to be able to tweak the speed settings by a few mph as I mentioned a while back.

Just like to thank Ash for a great utility. I found it simple to use and it works a treat on my I3. :D

Ash,

For what it's worth...

Your Converter is VISTA compatible!!!

Hi,

I have loaded the POILoader version of the speed cameras database through Ash's utility but I'm wondering why I get the initial approach bong-bong three times before i reach the camera. Anyone else had this?

Firmware 2.7, Audio 2.0, older i3 with card.

Cheers,
Grant

Ash,

Many thanks for a fantastic app, I tried it this morning for the first time and it worked perfectly, after I'd sorted out my own muppetry of course :D

I was thinking about the POI loader overwriting POI's each time you load them and wondered about this:

Save MaFt's POI's eg McDs, Tesco, Argos etc to the i3 but save the camera data base to the SD card. Would this means I should be able to load camera updates to the SD card without having to worry about wiping out any POI's I have on the i3 ?

ash, i used your application and noticed that it changes the default PGPSW icon for one with a very thin coloured border.

any chance of adding an option to select your own bmp's? just i found it quite hard glancing at the screen to see quickly what type of camera it was... i prefer the very different movbile icons that pgpsw provide

P.S. Actually, I think the BMP files need to be re-named to exactly match the BMPs that Ash's uitility creates, before copying/pasting, otherwise they are just ignored. The name needs to match the database file that they are associated with to work.

i'd already done that sorarse but thanks anyway. they don't need renaming though.

all i was after was an option in the utility to select my own bmp's or to use the ones from the zip file as they are. the whole point of ash10's utility, as he says, is "that you don't have to do anything with the zip file, just drag it to the program and all is sweet". however, if i then have to open up the zip to get the icons then i may as well use cbroms.

Once you've got your preferred bitmaps/icons in POI Loader's working directory, right-click then Properties and set them to Read Only ;)

Elp!

I'm a newbie and i've read all I can but I still cann'ae get it to work.

I've installed the POI's as per the PocketGPSWorld thing. In particular I downloaded the file: pgpsw-speed-cams.zip whicyh contains the one gpx file.

I then downloaded ASH's program.

I dragged an dropped the zip file in and all i get is errors. failure to unzip and open the .csv files.

I thought this thing wanted teh gpx files and not the csvs?

A little help file (or word document) of what this program does would be really great.
