Must have changed something in their software. I don't have that version, so not much I can do to help. Maybe BMW have worked out how stop people using backup copies. Or maybe it just needs the latest DVD version.

First of all an apology to all those of you who have emailed me over recent months and never received a reply. I'm really, really sorry I haven't responded, a combination of moving home and a new job has meant I've had no time to deal with car, speed camera issues. I've not even had time to update my own NAV DVD with recent camera updates! 
Hopefully now I've a bit more free time on my hands I can catch up with whats been going on
For those of you who have recently been upgraded to CIP 25 and now find your DVD no longer works, what CIP version were you on prior to the upgrade? If it was a version prior to CIP 23 then try creating a new DVD but this time make sure only ISO 9660 and UDF options are ticked when you are modifying the iso properties. As of CIP 23 it was reported that, that software version onwards didn't like the Joliet file system at all. Hope this helps.

Hey welcome back!
The problems which i have encountered have now all be sorted, and im more than willing to make a DVD for any member, provided that you dont mind paying the postage costs etc.

Hi,
I have modifiyed my DVD and it's working fine, thanks to a very detailled procedure
I have 2 questions :
1) It is possible to always have speed cameras in the screen (like 'city_centre.gif' for example)? and how?
2) It is possible to have on the screen at same time more than one category of speed cameras? I explain, before I had to use a tomtom device with speed camera detailled by:
* types (fixed, mobile, red light)
* speed (30, 40, 50 ...130)
The advantage is that you know the speed limit and you have a dedicated gif file.
I try to make that but i haven't find how to show all categories in same time. Perhaps it's impossible.
Thanks for your responses,
Regards

Hi Guys,
Great job you've done!
Trying to do the job with 2007-1 DVD.
3 questions :
1-) what is the best DVD to use. I burned a copy on a DVD+R (without speed cameras, just to check if I could do it). It seems to be slower than the original BMW DVD. How are the -RW and +RW?
2-) Since it seems impossible to have both "automatic" and "mobile" speed cameras on screen, do you know how to merge different .asc POI files (I've got one for each kind) in one?
3-) Any clue where I can find italian speed camera POI (I'll be there in 2 weeks)?
Thanks,

Hi Mathmos,
Thank you, I'll try to copy and past the files (hopefully tonight).
Since my last CIP update (end of march 2007, v.25 I think), I keep the displayed icon even after having stopped the car (eg petrol station).
Also when I start the car, the idrive screen is the one that was displayed when turnig off the car (eg radio + bord computer).
Great improvements!
I've already tried the link you propose and registered on the italian web site, but can't find where to download Speed Camera POI files.
Also, I'm not able to speak a word of italian, which doesn't help ...
We'll see ...

Hi All,
Do I need the V29.1 software upgrade to run the 2007-2 Europe Map.
I have a 2006 3 series M Sport with Pro Navigation.
If I insert the 2007-2 Disk I get "New Software DVD, shut down and restart after 5 minutes"
Stupid question, but how do you do that, or is this 2007-2 not compatible, 2006-1 came with car.
Any help would be good.
Regards, Steve.
