I have three .gpx POI files, along with seven .csv POI files. I have no problem adding all the .csv files, but when I add a second .gpx file it replaces the one currently in the GPS. All three have different filenames, of course. I've tried it many times and the last one loaded is the only one there, always replacing the previous one. Is there a limit of one .gpx file or am I doing something wrong? Results are the same with files I downloaded from poi-factory, ie "Pilot Travel Centers", or one I created with Extra POI Editor named "Personal POI".
This is on a 765T, and I have each file in its own directory. They are added using POILoader one at a time.
You can add gpx files just
You can add gpx files just like csv files.No limit of one.You do need to laod all the files at one time.Each time you run poiloader it overwrites the existing files.Here is the process for custom pois http://www.poi-factory.com/node/25721 .

Where are you telling POI Loader to put the GPX files? if you are loading the input directories separately and storing the output GPI file in the same directory, the existing file is overwritten every time you run POI Loader. You need to load all that's ALL the files in one operation.

Yes my understanding is you
Yes my understanding is you can mix .csv & .gpx files in the same folder as long as you point the POILoader that Folder to load.
Any updated POI file (gotta be same name when you copy paste) will be overwritten the existing ones.
