Hope you can help.
newbie here, so be nice;-)

I download some POI GPX files for Munich, Vienna, Prague. plus some other CSV POI.

Using Garmin POI loader, installed on on my Nuvi 1450.

All the lists show up as expected but all the GPX formated files are empty, whereas the CSV files have content as expected.

Any ideas?

use a text editor

Use a text editor and be certain the GPX files actually have data and they are not routes.

Yes, lot's of data

Thanks.
Yes, there is lots of data in the files.
I also loaded into extra POI Editor and the data shows up.

I could convert to CSV this way, but most of the info is stripped out when in CSV format.

How do you have the custom poi files set up? Do you have all the custom poi files in one folder or are you using subfolders? How many files in one folder or subfolders?

GPX in Extra POI Editor

When you open the individual POIs in EPE do you see the extra info in the Description field. I don't know if POILoader will display info in the Comment.

All of my GPX files have their extra info in the Description field in EPE and they all work on my 1450LMT.
