Mercedes comand GPX file Icon problem

Hi, i have converted all my ov2 files to gpx for my mercedes comand system and created a folder PersonalPOI on the sd card. The merc reads the files and puts them on the sat nav, but they all have a camera as the icon.
The icon files are all in the Personal POI folder too, but they do not read. They are the same name as the gpx file.
How do you get the gpx file to find the bmp file?
I have noticed in the code that icons are sometimes referred to as "16" "8" etc, What is that?

Thanks Gaz

Which MB model do you have?
You can try to download BMP file to integrate into the folder again.

Regarding the code "16" or "8", I could not find more information about them, but there is a simple explanation on each code when you drag down the menu. I just left it as default as 6.

I add a question on it, which formate of icon should be used, bmp or jpg or raw?
