i'm trying that.
i'm waiting to receive some files from one friend that are edited with pimpmynav to add to 2009-2 pro.
then you can see the speed cameras like POI's, i download today the last database of speed cameras in Europe, something like 26500 speed cameras.

For those of you with the new 2008-2 Professional DVD, I've just added some information regarding this version up at www.bmwnavaddpoi.co.uk

Very briefly, the folder structure has changed a bit and it is now a Dual Layer DVD.
The link for www.bmwnavaddpoi.co.uk no longer appears to work. Has anyone got a working link?

Has anybody managed to be able to filter custom POI's they have created using this pearl createidxurl.pl method?

Confused? Allow me to explain.. On the preloaded POI's you can for example in restaurants search for everything within (say 25 miles) and a big list appears. This works with custom POI's also, hence we get the speedcams on the screen.

However, in restaurants you can type in the text field McDonalds if it is within the selected range, and only the McDonalds would appear etc in the 'list'.

For custom POI's created using perl i cannot filter out in this way, despite replicating an entry in the general list, it says no results found.

Is this the case for everybody else, and if so has somebody managed to update the perl script to address this limitation at all?

For a better idea of what i am on about, look at the linked pdf, the very last page step 3, will produce no results. (Unlike these people with postcode searching, so it can be done

Is there a way to change the language of the nav DVD? I am in the US, but I prefer my nav instructions to be in German. I still have a copy of my old EU Navteq DVD - and I tried messing around with files and burning the image to one disk (getting rid of Spanish and French - keeping English and German) I burned it all to a disk but my US car could not read it. Part of the problem might be that I am on a Mac?
