Converting .csv to .ov2 for tomtom

 

I have both a TomTom 910 and the Nuvi 360, which my wife uses. I have been able to convert some files to .ov2, but sometimes I get an error telling me that there are some features that cannot be used, and POIEdit asks me to choose a type of conversion, which no choice seems to work. Any ideas what these "features" are and how to fix this?

the *.csv file has some CR/LF character

I had similar problems with the conversion. I manually looked at each error and saw that the notes section had the "square box" character (so called CR/LF charaters). I deleted these charaters and the conversion was fine afterwards.

The admin./or JM is aware of this and should be correcting it. Since there are many POI files, just let know which POI file you are having problems with and they should fix it.

Regards.

I wonder if the site admin

I wonder if the site admin would be so gracious as to consider opening up a spot to let us upload files that have been converted to .ov2 format? Whenever I finally get access to the redlight/speed cams, I certainly plan to do the conversion, and can't see why I shouldn't let others benefit too after I'm done.

If you use the POI edit...

If you use the POI edit... it only takes 1 minute to convert the csv file to ov2.

Others will have to be an active member or purchase their own redlight POI file.

Maybe in the future JM/admin will have the downloads for all formats.

Cheers.

Oh, I didn't realize it took

Oh, I didn't realize it took so little time. I still don't have access (very poor right now (but should change soon!)
